Blackbird House was shortlisted for the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award. She divides her time between Boston and New York City. |
There is something irresistible about the novels of Alice Hoffman. Her themes of love, marriage, family and friendship are reassuringly familiar and her style agreeably evocative…Her stories have a quality of mystery and even darkness that puts a fresh spin on the commonplace, and at its very best can make the reader look at life from a fresh angle. If I could see things through Hoffman's eyes, I'm convinced life would be richer and more interesting… Here On Earth is a wonderful piece of storytelling |
|
| Other text | Hoffman is shrewd and witty about the networks of gossip and affection in town, and she evokes place superbly… spellbinding |
