Lonely No More
"Seymour Shubin knows his way around the short story because of the deceptive ease of his prose. It's a snap to be seduced by the facility of his writing because Shubin is nothing if not damned entertaining, which is one of his greatest qualities. But as you're swept into the momentum of any given tale, it's likewise easy to overlook all of his other considerable strengths: he's incredibly perceptive, touching, funny, compassionate and versatile, among a whole host of other qualities."--- Mark SaFranko, from the introduction toLonely No More"Shubin understands that the recipe for good fiction is set in stone: (1) grab reader by the throat; (2) squeeze till limp."---Philadelphia Inquirer"Shubin is simply an excellent writer, and somehow every single time he creates a novel that leaves me thinking about it for days afterward, wondering 'How, exactly, does he DO that?'"--- Dianne Day, Author ofObsidian
