A small, enchanting novel that appeals to the naughty, insolent child in each of us. –USA Today
Luminous and daring . . Each delicious chapter - usually a page or less - is like a half-remembered episode from the depths of sleep, as indelible as it is fleeting. Story lines emerge, become entangled and then fade into the ether.

Audacious . . . extravagantly imagined . . . the novel is lovely. –
The New York Times Almost every page offers something original, and no one will close "Madeleine Is Sleeping" without rediscovering how profound - and profoundly strange - adolescence is. –
