Editorial Reviews

Anne Tyler

"White Horses" combines the concrete and the dreamlike. Its characters are people we think we recoginze at first; but then on second thought we're not so sure. There's an almost seamless transition from the real to the unreal, back and forth and back again. . . . "White Horses" is a satisfying novel, at the same time mysterious and believable, and it marks a significant advance for Alice Hoffman. -- New York Times
