What They're Saying
Critics Review
“An elegantly written examination of our ability to control our memories and our grief for the sake of survival.” - Jamie Harrison, award-winning author of The Widow Nash and The Center of Everything
“In one calamitous moment of loss and denial, Olivia Somerville walks out the back door of grief into a life untethered but far from free. The Ones We Keep tracks her journey, interspersed with the journeys of those she left behind, until a second momentous calamity cracks opens the door to a possibility of return. Bobbie Jean Huff thinks us through the unthinkable with grace and unwavering confidence in this riveting story that is wrenching and tender in equal parts, and in the end so deeply satisfying.” - Tim Wynne-Jones, author of The Emperor of Any Place
“Bobbie Jean Huff leads the reader sure-footedly through three decades in the life of a family torn apart by a tragic accident, to a moving and uplifting ending.” - Jane Rogers, author of Mr. Wroe’s Virgins
