Cunninghams short book is a haunting, beautiful piece of work. . . . A magnificent work of art. -The Washington PostEasily read on a plane-and-ferry journey from here to the sandy, tide-washed tip of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Lands End is that most perfect of companions: slender, eloquent, enriching, and fun. . . . A casually lovely ode to Provincetown. -The Minneapolis Star TribuneCunningham rambles through Provincetown, gracefully exploring the unusual geography, contrasting seasons, long history, and rich stew of gay and straight, Yankee and Portuguese, old-timer and washashore that flavors Cape Cods outermost town. . . . Chock-full of luminous descriptions . . . . Hes hip to its studied theatricality, ever-encroaching gentrification and physical fragility, and he can joke about its foibles and mourn its losses with equal aplomb. -Chicago TribuneA homage to the city of sand. . . Filled with finely crafted sentences and poetic images that capture with equal clarity the mundanities of the A&P and Provincetowns magical shadows and light . . . Highly evocative and honest. It takes you there. -The Boston Globe
