“Charming . . . a prescription for summer amusement that takes immediate effect. . . .”—The New York Times
“...Delivered in prose so witty and gorgeous that it calls to mind Nabokov’s comic masterpiece Pnin... This is, put simply, a joyful book—and the deeper you dig, the more joyful it becomes.”--The Guardian “Satirical but big-hearted and empathetic. . . . Reading Country People in public I kept having to muffle my LOLs.”—The Boston Globe “Delightful . . . joy-making . . . one of our country’s most gifted novelists, Mason has spun a yarn about parenthood and marriage, storytelling and imagination.”--Bookpage, starred review “My favorite of the year: Country People. . . . has the bright ease of visiting a good old friend. . . . one of those books where nothing happens, and yet everything does.”--Chicago Tribune “The humor—dry, humane, occasionally absurd—is ever-present . . . a cast of small-town figures whose quirks are rendered with generosity rather than satire.”--Booklist, starred review “Mason has fun exploring marriage, friendship, parenthood and the beguiling allure of storytelling and fantasy in this upbeat romp... ”—NPR "A satiric charmer... Lucky readers." —The Wall Street Journal “Wonderful—full of joy—and exactly the kind of reading experience we could all do with right now . . . the book of the summer.”—Mick Herron, author of Slow Horses |
