"As convincingly as Perry swift-paddles the perilous waters of love, he just as ably limns male comaraderie in all of its bantering rawness and fatherly parenting... His comic touch is equally consistent... The rough and tumble of men and women trying to make sense, eye-to-eye, toe-to-toe never leaves our view. The novel’s final collision sparks operatic." --The Boston Globe
Finalist, 2010 Flaherty-Dunnan First Novel Prize
"Honest, filled with doubts, often hilarious, and just a little bit scary, Kids These Days is sure to appeal to all parents, new and old—even the ones still standing on the sidelines, trying to get all their ducks in a row first. Especially them." -- The Atlanta Journal
