PRAISE FOR TIKI MAN

I love everything about Tiki Man… Atkinson shows us there is hope in the smallest of hearts and love in the roughest of gestures.”
- Catherine Ryan Hyde, New York Times bestselling author of PAY IT FORWARD

Pere and Tammy have been conjured into your heart by Atkinson...it just took Atkinson’s magic to reveal them. Read this book for that relationship. And read this book for the startling sentences that stitch this relationship together. ...Just one day. My god. It's a daring structure Atkinson chose for Tiki Man”
- R. Cathey Daniels, author of LIVE CAUGHT

A tale with heart...Atkinson gives us something far more satisfying and real than fireworks, and the ending is tense but quietly, heartbreakingly sweet.”
- Candace Robb, author of THE RIVERWOMAN'S DRAGON

I loved the human drama that pulses through Tiki Man...a captivating delve into America’s troubled class. ...rendered so shimmering yet gritty by this superb writer”
- Devin Murphy, National best-selling author of THE BOAT RUNNER

Tiki Man is a novel about compassion, about love and hope and sorrow and every damn thing in between. We see …tiny explosions of unconscious compassion. By the end, there’s redemption, mourning for loss, and the possibility of a real future. As a piece of writing, it’s majestic, a daring, audacious work, the kind of thing writers should aspire to achieve. It’s an act of magnificent love, and definitely one of the books of the year.”
- Chris Nickson, author of THE BLOOD COVENANT

Incredible book. Incredible writer… the kind of writer that makes you stop in your tracks.”
- Robin Winter, author of NIGHT MUST WAIT & FUTURE PAST

Tiki Man is about right now and that makes it brave... Tiki Man isn’t entertainment, it’s essential.”
- Craig Planting, author

The magic here …is how we're glad we may not have, or want their lives, but would have no problem dropping in now & then with a six pack in hand, and find out what we're missing in our own.”
- Vinny Segarra, reader

[Atkinson’s] writing is fearless and intense...poignant, funny, raw.”
