“Rosenthal enjoys toying with the narrative form. A welter of minute real-world detail confines characters and reader inside a moving prison of fate. [Her] characters come of age, start a family, harbor messianic visions, travel, [drive], attend a party, keep journals…[during] points of high physical drama…. The book is making an impact where it counts….”
