"Mothers are a cup without a bottom, holding the pains of generations they have raised and long to raise, generations of their own blood and those who they wet nurse and later spite them."

Review of The Revisioners
Book Review by DW McKinney

"The heart of the novel is about motherhood and the lifeblood of determination that flows through it. In The Revisioners, mothers struggle. They wait for their missing sons to reappear, broken and dimmer of light. They mourn the cleaving of their families after their children marry and leave for better promises. They whisper incantations for the protection and secure future of their adult children and grandchildren, still innocent and full of childhood. They both lament and celebrate the life growing in their wombs."
-DW McKinney, Book Review of The Revisioners

"I remember Pa’s wheatstraw hair shooting/ out from under his denim cap/ as he leaned hard against the car window,/ the strap on his overalls broken,/ a spatter of blood on his neck and chin."
