Ciment writes with absolute compassion... full of humor, generosity, and amazing tenacity... nothing short of heroic.
Luminous, sad, funny, and affecting... A writer blessed with an uncommon gift for language.
Irresistible... Read Jill Ciment's Heroic Measures for its painterly depictions of a rattled city, its deliciously biting satire of media and real estate madness, its tender knowledge of the creaturely ties that bind.
