NEW YORK TIMES BOOKS REVIEW CALLS 'STILL LIFE WITH MONKEY' A "DEEPLY BUT DELICATELY PENETRATING NOVEL"

Katharine Weber's Still Life with Monkey was reviewed by the The New York Times Book Review. They wrote, "Weber’s prose is precise, revealing rather than evocative; she seems to be aiming not to show her characters in their best light but rather to illuminate them from all angles, even the least flattering. Befitting the novel’s emphasis on the aesthetic, her style here is painterly . . . Still Life With Monkey is profoundly humane even while it’s asking the most difficult questions."
