“It’s rare to find a debut novel as finely crafted as “When the English Fall.” This book drew me in with its first line — “I hold her, tight in my arms, and she screams,” and kept me riveted long after I’d finished it. The open ending leaves room for a sequel, and I’d be glad to spend more time with this community and discover what’s next for it. But whether it’s a direct follow-up to this book or a different story entirely, you can bet I’ll be reading whatever Williams chooses to do next.”
- from Swapna Krishna’s review in the LA Times
