Praise for In the Context of Love, contemporary adult fiction:
“With tenderness, but without blinking, Linda K. Sienkiewicz turns her eye on the predator-prey savannah of the young and still somehow hopeful.”
~ Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of the #1 NY Times Bestseller, Deep End of the Ocean
“Linda K. Sienkiewicz’s powerful and richly detailed debut novel is at once a love story, a cautionary tale, and an inspirational journey. In the Context of Love should be required reading for all wayward teenage girls—and their mothers, too.”
~ Bonnie Jo Campbell, author of National Book Award Finalist, American Salvage, Once Upon a River, and Michigan Notable Book, Mothers, Tell Your Daughters.
“Linda Sienkiewicz has written a love letter to the wonder and imperfection of everyday life.”
~ Marcy Dermansky, author of critically acclaimed novels, Bad Marie and The Red Car
“Absorbing, heartbreaking, compulsively-readable and insightful, Linda Sienkiewicz’s In the Context of Love casts a hypnotic spell. This is storytelling at its best.”
~ Lewis Robinson, author of the critically acclaimed fiction, Officer Friendly: and Other Stories, and Water Dogs
“In her dynamic first novel, Linda K. Sienkiewicz takes you on a wild roller coaster ride through love’s lowest lows and highest highs, from dark acts of sexual violence to kisses that taste like freedom. Sienkiewicz captures her heroine’s harrowing journey with both compassion and passion. Linda K. Sienkiewicz is a wise, vivid and vital new voice in fiction.”
~ Elizabeth Searle, author of the Boston Globe Bestseller, A Four-Sided Bed, Girl Held in Home, and We Got Him
