PRAISE FOR EVERYWHERE I LOOK
'A captivating collection...No matter the topic, Garner is a charming and courageous writer whose distinctive voice exemplifies the range of what is possible in personal writing.'--Publishers Weekly

'Garner brings to the collection not only her tremendous powers of observation but a continued employment of those skills to force readers to confront unpleasant truths. The graceful prose with which she delivers her insights will challenge readers to look at what is happening around them.'--Library Journal (STARRED REVIEW)

'Like strolling around in an idiosyncratic, surprising, and informative museum.'--Kirkus

'Garner is a natural storyteller: her unillusioned eye makes her clarity compulsive.'--New Yorker

'Compulsively readable essays.'--Observer

'Writes with the humor and precision of Joy Williams, the warmth and ferocity of Elena Ferrante, and the investigative rigor of Janet Malcolm.'--John Freeman, LitHub

'A thoughtful dissection of the emotional anatomy of the everyday'.--Financial Times [UK]

'This is Garner in expansive mood writing gracefully about everything from her family to ballet to the dawn service.'--The Spectator
