Praise for The Truest Pleasure:
Robert Morgan's fiction is "about people who have a deep sense of themselves, who were not created by a huge and complicated society but by a small, simple one in which individual character sprouted slowly and in trial bloomed... wise, eloquent."
— New York Times Book ReviewWords plain and deep as the hills...
— BooklistRobert Morgan's The Truest Pleasure is a beautiful, riveting book.
— Lorrie Moore, Who Will Run the Frog Hospital?The Truest Pleasure is direct, dramatic, and totally convincing in its portrayal of a lost rural world.
— Alison Lurie, The War Between the TatesThere is comfort and humor in Morgan's evocation of country people trying to survive.
