"Vibrant, inventive, expansive. Kathleen Alcott has peered through the walls of an everyday apartment building and transformed the private lives of its tenants into pure poetry. "Infinite Home" is as much a story of those neighbors we may only know in passing, as it is a commentary on the beauty and misfortune of our modern age." --Said Sayrafiezadeh, author of "Brief Encounters with the Enemy
"
"Kathleen Alcott is part sculptor and part fire-breather--not only are these characters intricately carved but they stand up, walk right off the page and beckon us into a story that is both vivid and welcoming." --Ramona Ausubel, author of N"o One is Here Except All of Us"and "A Guide to Being Born"
"Starting with the first page of "Infinite Home," you will feel it: something different, something brave, and something fundamentally amazing about Kathleen Alcott's power over the English language. Every yearning character in this breakout novel is flesh and blood. Alcott's roving heart, and power as a storyteller, may very well be limitless." --Patrick Somerville, author of "This Bright River"
Praise for Kathleen Alcott
"A wholly original and moving work, a nuanced consideration of the complicated ways in which we love and fail one another." --Emily St. John Mandel, "New York Times"-bestselling author of "Station Eleven"

"[Alcott] is a skilled storyteller, and her understanding of just how dangerous it can be to love someone worms its way through almost every sentence." --"The Boston Globe"
Praise for"Infinite Home"
A stunningly sensitive exploration of how families are made and unmade, and how the search for one s place in the world can come to define a life. Kathleen Alcott writes characters so achingly real, they will take up permanent residence in your imagination. This novel is the evidence of a wondrous talent at work. Laura van den Berg, author of "The Isle of Youth" and "Find Me"
""Infinite Home" is Kathleen Alcott at her lyrical best. In her arresting new novel, she explores the boundaries of family and fraternity, with a Brooklyn brownstone as the nexus of the occupants interlocking worlds." Nathan Englander

"Infinite Home"is a story about a handful of people s lives and their excuses not to live them,
and how neither our lives nor our excuses can last forever. .Kathleen Alcott s beautiful telling of their stories is dense with individual sentences that are beautiful all on their own. She s that kind of writer. You might cry. You ll probably cry, actually. (I cried.) "Gawker"
Alcott s sophomore effort does wonders in building a fragile web of familiarity, and compels the reader to become an extended part of it. "NYLON"

Novelist Katheen Alcott calls into question what "home" really means -- is it a physical space populated by the belongings you acquire, or a state of mind achieved when you're surrounded with those you feel most at ease with? In "Infinite Home," she posits that it's somehow both. The Huffington Post
"Infinite Home"doesn t disappoint. At turns despondent and darkly funny, Alcott has woven a uniquely beautiful story which challenges the way we view the concept of home [W]hat Alcott does with her small community is nothing short of magic. Through short scenes, written with an exacting care and beauty, she creates characters that are so well realized that by the novel s end, it s easy to mistake these lost souls for friends, for people that we meet during our everyday constitutionals in the city. " Brooklyn Magazine"
I read straight through its 317 pages in about a day. This is mainly a direct result of Alcott s page-turning, character-driven prose.["Infinite Home"]" "offers up a story about the quest to find connection, meaning, love and a life that feels all our own. "Brooklyn Based"
