Críticas:
"An Anne Tyler-esque domestic drama. . . . Narrated with such lambent detail and compassion that it succeeds in casting a spell. . . . A limpid, witty, humane talent to watch."--Kirkus Reviews
"There's heartbreak, there's joy, there are parts where you cry--and it's very high quality writing. Well done!"--Margaret Atwood, Giller Prize Jury remarks
"Good to a Fault is one of those novels you want to tell people about. It's unpretentious and affecting, with characters to remember and themes that linger and resound."--Meg Wolitzer, New York Times bestselling author of The Ten-Year Nap
"A brilliantly balanced and engrossing work about illness, charity, and the very tenuous nature of goodness. Fans of contemporary fiction exploring the dangers of complacency and how domestic upheaval can lead to personal growth will enjoy; think Anne Tyler, Elizabeth Berg, and Anita Shreve. Highly recommended for all fiction collections."--Jenn B. Stidham, Library Journal
"An enjoyable and affirming meditation on altruism, goodness, and loneliness.... A touching story."--Publishers Weekly

“There’s heartbreak, there’s joy, there are parts where you cry—and it’s very high quality writing. Well done!”
— Margaret Atwood

— Meg Wolitzer, New York Times bestselling author of The Ten-Year Nap
Marina Endicott’s Good to a Fault wrings suspense and humor out of the everyday choices we make, revealing the delicate balance between sacrifice and self-interest, between doing good and being good. In the vein of the novels of Carol Shields and Ann Patchett, Good to a Fault is a “witty, wise. . . . [and] brilliantly paced” (Colm Tóibín) delight.
