"Compelling...McPhee's prose is steady, her tone thoughtful. She examines events of her past from all angles. She is amazingly generous...[Her] carefulness adds to her credibility; she positions herself neither as victim nor saint but as someone who, she says, only wants to be good."
–Washington Post "Expansive... [McPhee] embarks upon a series of projects–including tending to the understory of the land's forest–that lead her to examine the stories that sit behind her own ideas of family and sense of self."
–New Yorker "McPhee is an efficient, graceful writer, who makes no effort to spare her own flaws even as she searches for the roots of her mature turmoil in the shortcomings of adults who failed in the fundamental task of protecting her younger self."
–Bookpage "
Omega Farm is a moving memoir and an inspiring testament to forgiveness and hope."
