Tom Spanbauer, author of The Man Who Fell In Love With the Moon

The Olympian
"Kleiner has a beautiful way with words. There's a gentleness to his
characters yet he gives them the steel they need to survive- and to
challenge death...My personal hope is that everyone who deals with the aging
will read this book and think hard on it."This text refers to the
Paperback edition.
Eugene Weekly
"If God is in the details, Kleiner's debut is a holy romp...The author's
rambunctious prose settles into a hang-tight thematic on transcending the
mundane no matter what age...[Kleiner] lushly renders the Oregon countryside
and deftly captures those bewildering concerns trapped inside the hoariest
hearts."This text refers to the Paperback edition.
Rick Borsten, author of Rainbow Rhapsody
"A funny, touching, lovingly crafted novel by a writer who cares deeply for
his characters. To be sure, there is death where river turns to sky, but in
this magical tale, it is life that ultimately triumphs."This text refers
to the Paperback edition.
Chicago Tribune
"A lovingly told story of aging...an insightful story about reconciliation-
finding peace with our mistakes and each other. And it's a poignant story
about dying with dignity- or at least flair...[Kleiner] has captured the
essence of aging in these endearing, cantankerous, and very human
characters."This text refers to the Paperback edition.
