'Sharply funny, beautifully original.' Kate Christensen, author of The Austral and The Great Man 'Our bookshelves all have an empty space waiting for the book we long for but cannot imagine because it can't be described as 'the next A' or 'Author X by way of Author Y.' Love Is a Canoe fills that nameless void. Funny, tender, wholly original-it's as if all the good fairies came to its christening. (Story, dialogue, character, heart.) I loved it.' Laura Lippman, author of And When She Was Good and The Most Dangerous Thing 'Love Is a Canoe captures the most essential difficulties of marriage and commitment-our fears of love and loss. A brilliant book of do-overs and second chances, Schrank's novel is mordantly funny and an all too real meditation on modern life.' A. M. Homes, author of May We Be Forgiven and This Book Will Save Your Life 'As ethical lines blur, Schrank makes New York seem sharp and new.' The New Yorker on Miracle Man 'Brilliantly observed story about the desire to live in an egalitarian world.' Time Magazine on Miracle Man 'Love Is a Canoe is a wonderful and deceptively breezy novel-heartfelt and wise; light as feathers, strong as iron.' Adam Langer, author of The Thieves of Manhattan and Crossing California
