More Praise . . .
"Rose Mayer is a feisty character: gutsy, ethnic, working class, politically forward, spiritual – and still sexy. Luskin handles all the tensions of small town life perfectly: flatlanders and woodchucks, Democrats and Republicans, Jews and Christians, working class and professionals, young and old, men and women and —especially—love and time."
"The book [is] about re-inventing aging and female independence. I admire Rose for her determination to not succumb to boring old-age expectations."."
"Into the Wilderness is an ebullient, intelligent, credible fiction set in 1960s Vermont, about a widow escaped from Jewish Florida who finds music and love, and friends and lots to do, in a country village, without losing her politics or herself. This fresh and sharply observed novel is a toast To Life and a pleasure to read."
