Reviews
"Her writing is intelligent, perceptive, funny, and quite beautiful . . . Pearlman's view of the world is large and compassionate, delivered through small, beautifully precise moments . . . The volume is an excellent introduction to a writer who should not need one. Maybe from now on everyone will know of Edith Pearlman." --Roxana Robinson,New York Times Book Review, Editors' Choice "All of the pieces here have been exquisitely arranged to make this book . . . The effect is not so much of a sampling as of a suite . . . [Binocular Vision] enacts a worldview in thirty-four precise and subtle movements, reminding us that if connection is elusive, there is nobility in perseverance, and that we are almost always greater than the sum of our parts." --David Ulin,Los Angeles Times "There is a vast difference between reading Pearlman's stories in a magazine or anthology and reading this collection . . . Depictions of people, places, and manners are so perfect that the stories become totally immersive . . . Give this wonderful collection to fans of such classic short story writers as Andre Dubus and Alice Munro and novelists like Nicole Krauss. They will thank you." --Booklist, starred review "A finely tuned collection by writer's writer Edith Pearlman combines the best of previous collections with austere, polished new work'?? . . . This should win new converts for Pearlman." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "Lovely and lyrical--a celebration of language and another virtuoso performance from a writer who does indeed deserve to be better known." --Kirkus, starred review "Binocular Vision should be the book with which Edith Pearlman casts off her secret-handshake status and takes up her rightful position as a national treasure. Put her stories beside those of John Updike and Alice Munro. That's where they belong." --Ann Patchett, author ofBel Canto, from the Introduction "Edith Pearlman is an absolute master of the form: these are stories that abjure tricks and flash for brilliantly drawn characters, classic construction, and language that sings and aches all at once." --T.C. Boyle, author ofThe Women "Edith Pearlman is a master of the short story...Her characters are complicated, fully alive. You can't stop reading, because you know they'll astonish you on the very next page." --Alice Mattison, author ofThe Book Borrower, "Her writing is intelligent, perceptive, funny, and quite beautiful . . .
