Reviews
"[A] historically detailed story of class struggle, disappointment and long suffering. The characters are transformed into beloved (and sometimes hated), familiar friends." -- The Denver Post, "A group of savvy women in early-1800s Massachusetts refuse to live by society's rules. Their dramas are soap opera juicy--but much better written."--Glamour, "Diamant's tart observations - about human frailty and a landscape where "rocks are by far the most reliable crop" - are a pleasure to read."--Seattle Times, "Diamant's tart observations - about human frailty and a landscape where "rocks are by far the most reliable crop" - are a pleasure to read." -- Seattle Times, "Anita Diamant'brings an obscure piece of American history to life with great clarity in The Last Days of Dogtown. The story is one of delicate hope and turns out to be a quiet tribute to love's power. Diamant captures with imagination and credibility the people of a unique place and time. In casting her own spell over the Dogtowners, Diamant offers her readers the opportunity to appreciate the humanity that transcends both."--Miami Herald, "Anita DiamantÅ brings an obscure piece of American history to life with great clarity in The Last Days of Dogtown. The story is one of delicate hope and turns out to be a quiet tribute to love's power. Diamant captures with imagination and credibility the people of a unique place and time. In casting her own spell over the Dogtowners, Diamant offers her readers the opportunity to appreciate the humanity that transcends both." -- Miami Herald, "The book has a compelling, page-turning pull...with spare yet vividly descriptive prose."--The Boston Globe, "[A] superb historical novel. With its cast of thoroughly engaging characters, Diamant's gripping tale is so bittersweet and haunting as to make one weep." -- The Baltimore Sun, "[Diamant's] theme -- that life teems even as it dwindles -- has all the more power for its subtle, unsentimental articulation." -- "The Washington Post", ³Anita Diamant gives us a character who doesn't get from life exactly what she wants but who creates her own happiness, nonetheless. Judy Rhines lives life fully by embracing every moment and appreciating the uniqueness of others and her own integrity. Both Judy and the haunted New England landscape evoke something of the world of Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and his Hester Prynne, who also defies convention by following her own passion. The Last Days of Dogtown transports the reader to a fascinating time and place where even the dogs are compelling characters." -- Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab's Wife and Four Spirits, "Diamant's fans won't be surprised to see that she continues to excel at creating memorable characters? But the character that's the most moving is the dying town itself."--Boston Magazine, "A deeply satisfying novel, populated by people we care about, delineated in spare, elegant prose...Moving, absorbing and engaging." -- Kirkus Reviews, "[Diamant's] theme -- that life teems even as it dwindles -- has all the more power for its subtle, unsentimental articulation." --The Washington Post, "The book has a compelling, page-turning pull...with spare yet vividly descriptive prose." --The Boston Globe, "[W]hat [Diamant] has created'is the overlay of a modern sensibility on an imagined past. Diamant's descriptive passages are as eloquent as a Congregationalist'and her theme -- that life teems even as it dwindles -- has all the more power for its subtle, unsentimental articulation."--Washington Post, "[Diamant's] theme -- that life teems even as it dwindles -- has all the more power for its subtle, unsentimental articulation." -- The Washington Post, Anita Diamant gives us a character who doesn't get from life exactly what she wants but who creates her own happiness, nonetheless.

The Last Days of Dogtown is well worth making the trip from town on up to the rocky hillside where Diamant brings her characters to life. Their voices -- and the eyes of the dogs, as well -- will linger with you for days." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "YDiamant's? theme -- that life teems even as it dwindles -- has all the more power for its subtle, unsentimental articulation." -- "The Washington Post", "Diamant's fans won't be surprised to see that she continues to excel at creating memorable characters' But the character that's the most moving is the dying town itself." -- Boston Magazine, "[W]hat [Diamant] has created'is the overlay of a modern sensibility on an imagined past.
