Infinite Home (Alcott)

Book Reviews
Kathleen Alcott's second novel takes on a big question—what makes a "home" a "home"?—and answers with stunning originality.... Beyond this compelling story, Alcott's incredibly accomplished prose is good reason to put Infinite Home at the very top of your to-read list.
Bustle.com


Alcott’s new novel takes place in a sprawling Brooklyn brownstone, offering a peek into the complicated lives of the tenants who have come to live in it.... The writing is dreamy and easy to inhabit, but is occasionally undermined by its tendency toward abstraction, when it would benefit more from precise plot development. Nevertheless, Alcott’s writing is generous, and her peculiar cast of characters memorable.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) In her quietly wonderful second book, Alcott displays a deft hand with every one of her odd and startlingly real characters.... Their situation may not be enviable, but Alcott's handling of it is. The voices in this book speak volumes. A luminous second novel from a first-class storyteller.
