A GalleyChat favorite Heft by Liz Moore (Norton), gets a strong lead review in this week’s issue of  People (Feb 6).

Told through the eyes of two lonely misfits, who eventually connect, the novel, says the reviewer , “… is often deeply sad, [but] it is never maudlin. [Moore] writes with compassion and emotional insight but resists sentimentality, briskly moving her plot forward, building suspense and empathy.”

Moore, who is a musician as well as a writer, was recently profiled in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
