"It is difficult to overstate the brilliance of Would You…."— The Globe and Mail"…[an] exquisitely honed novel…."— Starred Review, Publishers Weekly"The narrative's strength is in its candor…. A realistic and very credible account of how one family's life is inexplicably and unexpectedly shattered."— Kirkus Review
