The Hatbox Baby

A "fascinating, lyrically written tale" (Kirkus Reviews), this is a love story about an offbeat doctor and a famous fan dancer; and an epic novel about misfits and makeshift families, fragile lives and unpredictable loves-all set against the backdrop of Chicago's 1933 World's Fair.

"Mesmerizing reading. [An] uncommon, contemplative novel." (Orlando Sentinel)

"Quietly plotted, richly imagined and rendered with remarkable grace." (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)

"Suffused with a warm and sympathetic intelligence." (Chicago Tribune)
