"IF NTOZAKE SHANGE, JANE AUSTEN, AND DANIELLE STEEL COLLABORATED ON A NOVEL OF MANNERS...[DISAPPEARING ACTS] MIGHT BE THE RESULT."-The New Yorker
Disappearing Acts is a funny, earthy novel about not-so-young- anymore lovers who try hard to stay together in spite of everything.....Ribaldly realistic... but touchingly lyrical...this novel has vibrancy.... With eloquence and style, McMillan gives her work a voice that is her own, one tough enough to speak across class and color lines, daring enough to make a statement about our country and our times."-New York Newsday
Disappearing Acts is a get-out-your-handkerchiefs love story. Unflinchingly realistic...warm, natural."-USA Today
Disappearing Acts is a strong story that readers won't want to put down.....A reader can melt in the heat of Zora and Franklin's passions about each other, their work, their families....McMillan has molded a moving winner."-Detroit Free Press
