Duck and Cover

By Brenda Peterson

Book Overview

Selected by the New York Times as a "Notable Book of the Year," for it's "wicked, black comedy," Duck and Cover was hailed by Publisher's Weekly as "a bittersweet and utterly beguiling novel." The Los Angeles Times noted Peterson is "a hauntingly funny writer...the balance she strikes is almost hypnotic." An eerily prescient novel, Duck and Cover is even timelier now in a 21st century of intimate terrorism--within our families and our world.
