The Off Season

Reviews / Votes

Read this book while you're at the beach. Read it if you wish you could be at the beach. Just read it!"" - Anita Diamant, author of The Boston Girl

""With one of the most effortlessly charming voices you're likely to come across, Amy Hoffman has written a portrait of a place and the madly diverse group of people that lives there. As antic and funny as this irresistible novel is, Hoffman's real triumph is reminding us of the importance of community in the face of hostility and oppression. It's hard to imagine a more timely or necessary reminder."" - Stephen McCauley, author of The Object of My Affection

""The Off Season is right on! A sparkling novel about the flora and fauna and florid drama of lesbians living in Provincetown for one memorable season."" - Kate Clinton,humorist

"Hoffman cleverly [writes] about the journey it takes for ex-lovers to move on and, perhaps, even become friends." - Library Journal

"A fast-paced, buoyant, often celebratory tale." - Lambda Literary
