Praise for
Into The Wilderness
"Into the Wilderness is a fiercely intelligent love story”
– The Rutland Herald review
"Into the Wilderness is a perfectly gratifying read."
– Seven Days review
"Times of transition -- personal, political and in a particular place -- are the tectonic plates whose tremors shake loose the story at the heart of Deborah Lee Luskin's tender and touching first published novel Into the Wilderness."
– The Brattleboro Reformer review
“Music is central to the novel . . . Luskin is convincing in translating the aural, physical and emotional power of music into words on the paper. The result is a wonderful novel.”
– Addison Independent review
What readers say:
"Luskin's heroine Rose Mayer is an honest to God miracle."
“Luskin knows her yentas and her Yankees, and she mixes them well.”
"I have never read better description of music in words."
"I just finished reading Into the Wilderness -- and I'm in love with Rose--what a great character she is! I enjoyed every word!"
