Reviews
A charming, airy, and disarmingly melancholy novel [that] makes of Bloomsbury a kind of snow globe-diminutive, self-contained, beautifully agitated-within which major and minor figures are given room to float past at their leisure
Mitz shimmers with an emotional truth missing from the most rigorous Bloomsbury histories
At its very best the book takes on the edginess of Mrs. Dalloway
In short, glistening sentences that refract the larger world, Ms. Nunez describes the appealingly eccentric, fiercely intelligent Woolfs during a darkening time
A wry, supremely intelligent literary gem about devotion - to writing, to other people, and between humans and their pets. Like The Friend, Mitz captures the heartrending downside of love and connection - loss. But it also reminds us, beautifully, of the "great solace and distraction" of literature
