Reviews of The Ballad
of Frankie Silver “Some stories wait more than a hundred years for the right teller
to come along… McCrumb shifts easily back and forth in time,
combining police procedural with an
old-fashioned historical narrative worthy of Dickens or Jane Austen.”—Asheville Citizen-News “The Ballad of Frankie Silver.invites us to pull up a quilt and turn our faces to the fire…dense and lovely.” —The New York Times Book Review
“From snippets of rural life, scraps of memories and fragments of tragedy, (McCrumb) has stitched together a vivid American heirloom.” —Newsday
—Richmond Times-Dispatch
“One of our most gifted authors …She has never been better in this masterful blend of fact and fiction, in which men and women – some real, some imaginary, all convincing – play out their lives in way both tragic and inspiring against the ghost-haunted backdrops of the Appalachians.” —The San Diego Union-Tribune
