Praise for "All Around Atlantis: "Small masterpieces...[a] dazzling collection....Like Alice Munro, virtually her only equal in the field, Deborah Eisenberg here seems incapable of writing a bad short story...She focuses on misfits, people who don't feel at home in the world. So skilled is she at developing these characters as engagingly 'ordinary' that we find ourselves identifying with them without realizing how we got there....Eisenberg's writing at times approaches the beauty of a line of poetry. She manipulates her readers with a master's blend of humor and poignancy. Her stories are wondrous." --David Wiegand, "San Francisco Chronicle "In his preface to "What Maisie Knew, Henry James reminds us that 'small children have many more perceptions than they have terms to translate them.' The writer, James was suggesting, might by a certain sleight of hand grant fictional children a language that honors these intuitions, this inner life.... No contemporary American fiction has demonstrated James's suggestion more powerfully than Deborah Eisenberg's, beginning with her first story collection ... and continuing with her newest, "All Around Atlantis." --Jim Shephard, "The New York Times Book Review
