Praise for Poe by Stewart O'Nan:
"A page-turner that delivers a tale as full of mystery and imagination as Poe's famous stories…Stewart O'Nan's life of Poe would make a great movie: erotic, violent, darkly humorous, suspenseful, and shocking."
— Roger Corman, director of House of Usher, Pit and the Pendulum, and The Raven

Praise for the writing of Stewart O'Nan:
"I think that if you haven't read Stewart O'Nan ... you have some catching up to do."
— Stephen King

"The perfect ghost story for a contemporary Halloween..."
— Peter Straub on The Night Country

"Stewart O'Nan's turf is the large swath of the country that lies in the dark shadow of the American dream. His fiction tends to chronicle the lives of the two classes that dwell there: the poor and, as he puts it, "the richer poor." He is a poet of strip mall ennui, road rage, fluorescent lighting and the sparse lawns of prefabricated real estate developments. His characters strive to make their mortgage payments, hold full-time jobs and keep the refrigerator stocked, but struggle to fend off the lurking nightmares of domestic crime, alcoholism and war trauma. They buy lottery tickets, and they always lose."
— The New York Times on Last Night at the Lobster

"A moving, lyrical, assured piece of work ... O'Nan is an experienced explorer of the irrationalities of being human."
— The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on The Good Wife

"A thriller of the heart, at once suspenseful and emotionally absorbing."
— Newsday on Snow Angels

"Shines with a cold, stark light ... Strangely beautiful."
— Los Angeles Times on Snow Angels
