Halfway Heaven:
"A book of rare, illuminating depth... Melanie Thernstrom once again demonstrates a great, shattering gift for writing about forgotten people."
--Mikal Gilmore, author of Shot in the Heart
"Halfway Heaven takes us deep into the twin Harvards--the seemingly cozy world of the insider...and the terrifyingly lonely one of the outsider."
--Stewart O'Nan, author of The Speed Queen and The Names of the Dead
"Fascinating...this book is a wake-up call to American universities everywhere."
--Susan Power, author of The Grass Dancer
"Like Hannah Arendt, Melanie Thernstrom here beautifully explores the etiology of evil."
--Lauren Slater, clinical psychologist and author of Welcome to My Country
The Dead Girl:
"Eloquent...a notable model of the female Bildungsroman."
--Helen Vendler, New York Review of Books
"The Dead Girl is groundbreaking, new and startling, and will surely have a long life in literature."
--Harold Brodkey
