Out of Eden: A Novel (Capital Classics)

"What's best about 'Out of Eden' is its brave, complicated ideas about women and the West … Kate Lehrer, who previous novel, 'When They Took Away the Man in the Moon,' also dealt with the conflicting desires of a strong woman, stakes out fascinating turf here … This is terrific material for full-bodied storytelling … One can almost imagine a clever director turning this saga of Victorian gentlewomen into a cowgirls' Thelma and Louise." -- The Washington Post
