“As gripping as it is hilarious, with a few ideas for liberals trying to live through the current administration.” – Vanity Fair
"Wonderfully witty...A satirical take on the serene Midwestern life and an insightful, comical look at a woman whose life starts to unravel at breakneck speed."—Chicago Review of Books, "The Most Anticipated Fiction Books of 2018"
"Brazen, sexy, and whip smart: We adored this ode to the power and spirit of feisty Midwestern women." —Refinery 29, "The Best Books Of 2018 We Can't Wait To Read This Month"
"Thisbe Nissen's Our Lady of the Prairie is an exploration of what it means to be a levelheaded individual who suddenly has a life that is anything but level. At times it will leave you in stitches, at others, in tears — but it's one hell of a read."—PopSugar, "The 16 Best Books Hitting Shelves in January"
"I devoured this novel. It's full of the sweet, crazed, exhausted, love-saturated, tension-flecked bustle of family, and the finely-rendered complexities of intimacy--that vexing, sublime, shape-shifting beast. So much humanity and surprise in this book. It just made my whole being vibrate and hum with the impossible, inevitable business of loving other people."--Leslie Jamison, New York Times bestselling author of The Empathy Exams and The Recovering
“Our Lady of the Prairie is a tumultuous romp, both cautionary and liberating. A mystery winds its way through these pages, as Thisbe Nissen explores marriage, lust, midlife crises and motherhood, crafting complex portraits not only of her characters but also of the land they inhabit; and, one thing is clear, this novel was written in praise of the prairie itself.”—Julianna Baggott, author of Harriet Wolf’s Seventh Book of Wonders
