A rave review in the Minneapolis Star Tribune celebrates LIFE IS EVERYWHERE by Lucy Ives as “one of the year's most impressive books in any genre,” adding: “Ives’ new novel is unconventional and resourceful, sorrowful and perceptive, a challenging, rewarding book full of irreverent humor, rich imagery and engrossing digressions…[T]he sort of book that eludes all but the most talented of novelists.” Meanwhile The New Yorker commends the book’s “twisting and treacherous update on the adultery plot…like an encyclopedia whose every entry is at its heart an intimate betrayal.” Graywolf Press published the book on October 4, 2022.
