<span style="font-family:Times;line-height:25px;font-size:14px;color:#333333;">– “<em>Cut Through the Bone</em> is full of phantom limbs and phantom lives. These stories create a sense of loss in the reader, an ache, but thankfully they avoid dull cynicism. Instead, they bear witness to the difficulty of living for oneself while sacrificing for others. In one story a woman pleads, ‘I’m here though? Tell me I’m here.’ Ethel Rohan’s stories are like testaments to all the women and men who’ve asked the same thing of the world. Those folks remain unseen to most, but this truly talented artist isn’t blind. Ethel Rohan is one hell of a writer.” — <strong>Victor LaValle, author of <em>Big Machine</em></strong></span>
