REVIEWS
"Truly profound... The genius of Incidental Moments is in how it extends [the] social and verbal uneasiness within a family to embrace the most important and divisive subjects of the day." ~ The New York Times
"The piece’s unspoken liberalism - real liberalism, which allows for different points of view -is a moving rebuke to our parched, stark times.” ~ The Sunday Times
“An achingly poignant trilogy that maps out the existential black hole we seem to have fallen into.” - The Washington Post
“The pieces (the trilogy) will be remembered, mostly, for how they told the story of our feelings while isolated.” - Chicago Tribune
