PRAISE
“A tour de force. There are many great things about this book…It will thrill her fans with its combination of Greek tragedy, Romeo and Juliet-like coming of age story and domestic potboiler. She recreates in magical detail the lives of Alaska’s homesteaders… and is just as specific and authentic in her depiction of the spiritual wounds of post-Vietnam America.”
–KIRKUS (STARRED REVIEW)
“Reliably alluring…The Great Alone is packed with rapturous descriptions of Alaskan scenery… Hannah remembers and summons an undeveloped wilderness, describing a gloriously pristine region in the days before cruise ships discovered it.”
–THE NEW YORK TIMES
“Set in the early 70s, this coming of age story has parallels in the current day and becomes a cautionary tale for our times.”
–THE TORONTO STAR
“Featuring a rich cast of characters and elevated by the riveting portrayal of homesteading in Alaska in the 1970s, this is a compassionate story of a family.”
–People, “Book of the Week”
“Hannah is dominating national bestseller lists once again, with a post-Vietnam family saga that takes place against the harsh but gorgeous Alaskan landscape.”
–Entertainment Weekly, “New and Notable”
“Hannah vividly evokes the natural beauty and danger of Alaska and paints a compelling portrait of a family in crisis and a community on the brink of change.”
–Booklist
“Vivid…Hannah skillfully situates the emotional family saga in the events and culture of the late 70s…tautly drawn characters contribute not only to Leni’s improbable survival but to her salvation amid her family’s tragedy.”
–Publishers Weekly (starred and boxed)
“In this latest from Hannah, the landscape is hard and bleak but our young heroine learns to accept it and discover her true self…fans will appreciate the astuteness of the story and the unbreakable connection between mother and child.”
–LIBRARY JOURNAL
“This epic atmospheric novel examines humans’ will to endure the unthinkable.”
–Real Simple
