Kim Barnes

Praise for In the Kingdom of Men

Barnes animates a magnetizing cast of cosmopolitan characters ... A veritable Mad Men of the desert, with the depth of a Graham Greene novel.

Booklist

A close inspection of how radically a life can be rescaled, and how quickly. With a protagonist like this, Barnes could have set her novel in a single room, and we'd keep reading.

Boston Globe

Drawn with skill and filled with evocative period detail ... [Gin] plumbs the depths of her new world with heart and courage.
