Some of the Buzz Surrounding PORTRAITS IN THE DARK:

"I don't try to conjure a single word to describe a given book, but in this case the word "lingering" comes to mind when I think about the stories in PORTRAITS IN THE DARK. This is subtle writing that sort of wraps around you unawares. Nancy O. Greene basically takes the reader on a fascinating tour of the realms of the human psyche normally closed to visitors." -Daniel Jolley, Amazon.com Top 50 Reviewer.

"A slender but remarkably intriguing read, PORTRAITS IN THE DARK comprises nine short stories balanced neatly on the line that separates hope from hopeless despair. The cast of characters and scenarios is fascinating." - Dave Thompson, TCM Reviews.

"There is a lot of rich, imaginative concentrated escapism [in PORTRAITS] – a lot inside a little space. Greene makes conservative use of words, making as few as possible go as far as they can be stretched, not unlike, say, Kafka, who also was a master of minimalistic writing with a maximum imagery effect." - KM, Reviewer Magazine.
