Her sentences are clear and inviting, her plots have arcs, and moment by moment the stories ring emotionally true. This is unrelentingly pleasurable fiction ... Bloom's writing manages to be at once light and grave. She treats her characters with a seriousness that makes them real. That is the odd, neat trick of all good fiction
