Q (11/01, p.130) - 4 out of 5 stars - "...Eerily compelling..." Uncut (11/01, p.124) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Stripped-down, honest and raw....It's another understated gem, full of old-fashioned waltzes slowed down to a heartbeat and mournful back-porch ballads of home-spun wisdom..." Magnet (12-1/02, p.111) - "...The finest folk composition of the 'nuovo secolo'...a rare combination of delivery, storyline and 'melodia'..." CMJ (8/4/01, p.4) - "...A classic for today and any other day..." Mojo (Publisher) (p.61) - Ranked #49 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Threading musical and lyrical motifs, her third album is a loose song cycle that repays close and repeated listening." Mojo (Publisher) (1/02, p.69) - Ranked #4 in Mojo's "Best [40] Albums of 2001". Mojo (Publisher) (11/01, p.102) - "...A profoundly good record..."
