Praise for The House of Gentle Men "An astonishing accomplishment. It has the fateful mood of a myth or a tale, but the people are as real as ourselves and I love it that Kathy Hepinstall knows how to make forgiveness as interesting as hopelessness." Gail Godwin "A richly poetic fable. At once modern and timeless, it strikes a chord that will resonate in the heart and mind of the reader long after the last page has been turned...an extraordinary debut." Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey "Kathy Hepinstall is an amazing new writer who writes with the authority, power, and control of a seasoned novelist. THE HOUSE OF GENTLE MEN is a tour de force..." Terry McMillan
"In an assured first novel that demonstrates promising literary talent, Hepinstall gracefully explores issues of guilt, forgiveness, grace, and redemption." --Publisher's Weekly "...intriguing...lyrical and uniquely descriptive writing...this unusual first novel is definitely thought-provoking." --Booklist "This is a deeply poetic novel, haunting as a fable, and enormously generous of spirit." --Austin Chronicle "An imaginative tale of secrets, crimes, forgiveness and redemption." --Austin American-Statesman "A lyrical tale of sin and redemption with the heart of a fable...beautifully told." --Atlanta Journal Constitution "Fresh and provocative, THE HOUSE OF GENTLE MEN shimmers with sensuous prose." --New Orleans Times-Picayune "...haunting and poetic...beautifully written." --Hilton Head Island Packet "This stunning first novel is not forgettable." --Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
