Reviews"If you want to know what the United States will be like in ten or twenty years, all you have to do is read Carolyn See's wonderfully acute and perceptive novels." -- Alison Lurie Advance praise for The Handyman "The Handyman proves once again that Carolyn See is one of this generation's most talented and versatile writers." -- Fannie Flagg "Misleadingly conversational in tone, borne aloft on deceptively offhand currents, The Handyman ascends, detail by detail, into the realm of mysterious profundity Carolyn See has made her own. Only a master novelist could have written this book; only Carolyn See could have informed the mastery with such grace." --Peter Straub "Carolyn See's handyman is an inspired creation--saint, sinner, life-filled artist and commonsense savior. As she did in Golden Days, Ms. See conveys a wry, radiant vision wholly her own." --Andrea Barrett "Carolyn See is our fearless and rapier-witted leader in whose hands it is simply heavenly to visit hell. The Handyman is a wonderful read, so acrid and sweet, crisp and compelling." --Beverly Coyle "Perfectly pitched, this book is a charming, indeed a heartwarming ride through the City of Angels, a ride you won't want to get off of." --Greg Sarris "The Handyman is a marvelous book, so funny and inventive, so sexy and so kind. I loved it." --Alice Adams
