Binocular Vision Reviews
'Gold medal class ... seems beyond compare ... The traditional literary system has worked, though grievously slowly, in giving a genius of the short story her due.' Mark Lawson, Guardian', [Pearlman's stories are] meticulously made, Miraculously precise, and so fully populated that you marvel one mind could invent so many distinct human beings from scratch.' Sam Leith, Financial Times, 'An unsung master.' Megan Walsh, The Times, 'This Book is a spectacular literary revelation.' Peter Kemp, The Sunday Times
