“An astonishingly good first novel . . . fully engaging from the
first paragraph. What a gift: to be able to live alongside these
people for a while.”—Ann Patchett, Chicago Tribune
“A literary love story . . . about the fragility of good fortune
and the accidental ways of finding happiness.”—USA Today
“Justin Cronin must have been a novelist in an earlier life. What
else could account for the mature insight and the beautifully
controlled technique we find in his debut novel? . . . Cronin
succeeds, touchingly and tenderly, in portraying life itself as a
triumph of hope over experience.”—The Boston Globe
“Justin Cronin’s Mary and O’Neil is that rare thing: a wholly
engrossing story of the ordinary life.”—Madison Smartt Bell, author
of All Souls’ Rising
