Book Summary and Reviews of Go With Me by Castle Freeman

Media Reviews

"Starred Review. A small masterpiece of black comedy and suspense...if all novels were this good, Americans would read more." - Kirkus Reviews.

"This gem of a novel by Vermont author Freeman may bring him the larger audience he so richly deserves. . . . Freeman turns this fablelike story into a surprisingly suspenseful showdown. And the artful cutaways to the old-timers’ priceless, extremely funny conversations add another level of richness to the tale." — Booklist.

"Like its young heroine, Lillian, Freeman's trim powerhouse is 'a pistol'.... Freeman's beautifully cadenced dialogue is rich with humor, philosophic depth and a near-mythic sensibility." — Publisher's Weekly.

Sadly, Go With Me, fell short with BookBrowse's reviewer who feels it to be "a screenplay very thinly disguised as a novel - like reading a Tarrantino screenplay in paragraph form, complete with affectless characters who repeat each other's dialogue word for word."
