Review Quotes

"Full of hard-won wisdom, beautifully written and deeply moving, The Perpetual Motion Machine is an exquisite chronicle of family and trauma and hope and longing, and announces Brittany Ackerman as an exciting new voice in letters." --Alan Heathcock, author of VOLT and 40

"One of the most important types of love - the love between siblings - has perhaps also been the least-carefully explored in contemporary literature. Count Brittany Ackerman's instantly engaging and wildly engrossing memoir, The Perpetual Motion Machine, as a headfirst dive in the right direction. Her prose is accessible and affecting, and her family story is exquisite in its luminous detail and intimacy, full of heartbreak and humor - as simple as an abacus, as expansive as the starry night sky. I loved this book!" -Davy Rothbart, author of My Heart is an Idiot and creator of FOUND Magazine, and contributor to This American Life
