Alice Hoffman is the author of more than thirty works of fiction, including The World That We Knew, The Rules of Magic, The Marriage of Opposites, Practical Magic, The Red Garden, the Oprah's Book Club selection Here on Earth, The Museum of Extraordinary Things, and The Dovekeepers. She lives near Boston.
"Beautiful, harrowing, a major contribution to twenty-first century
literature."--Toni Morrison, Nobel Laureate in Literature
"In her remarkable new novel, Alice Hoffman holds a mirror to our
ancient past as she explores the contemporary themes of sexual
desire, women's solidarity in the face of strife, and the magic
that's quietly present in our day-to-day living. Put The
Dovekeepers at the pinnacle of Hoffman's extraordinary body of
work. I was blown away." --Wally Lamb, author of The Hour I First
Believed
"I am still reeling from The Dovekeepers--from the history Alice
Hoffman illuminates, from the language she uses to bring these
women to life. This novel is a testament to the human spirit and to
love rising from the ashes of war. But most of all, this novel is
one that will never be forgotten by a reader." --Jodi Picoult,
author of Sing You Home
