"Son, a young writer who made her debut as writer less than a few years ago, is aptly described by a line from Hot Air Balloon: 'sympathetic toward other people's grief and exercises great self-control.' Through her sentences so equable and dry that they seem determined to banish all feelings they could carry, readers carefully learn the language of the others engraved on the pages with a deliberate nib. Her stories are a delicate lesson in the method of revealing the pain and death of others and how the living exist with these deaths."
