Review Quotes




"It's his willingness to stop and smell the flowers that makes him such a companionable writer." --Kirkus Reviews

"If there is anything he enjoys more than the heathen moment, it is attending the song of a stonechat, the chance to take a snooze in a field of wildflowers, an idle glass of wine." --San Francisco Chronicle

"Mitchell deftly proves that his is a universal topic, crossing borders and topics and time." --The Boston Globe
