"A good read written by a thoughtful and skilled writer"
Bathsheba Monk is the author of novels ranging from Nude Walker and Now You See it: Tales from
Cokesville, PA to her Swanson Herbenko cozy mystery series. It’s no mystery
what she thought after reading Setting the Family Free. Let’s skip ahead to the
end:
“In an age when we humans seem hellbent on destroying the
planet and everything on it, it's imperative to have authors writing with
empathy about the impact our decisions have on our fellow creatures. Fiction is
the perfect vehicle for this, especially in the hands of a compassionate
writer. Eric D. Goodman takes an interesting premise, the release of captive
animals from human control, and puts them on a more even footing with humans.
Are we the same or even similar? Or are they just the "other" and
must be subdued if their needs and wants conflict with ours? Goodman resists a
Disney ending, and as all good writers do, manages to raise more questions than
he answers. Setting the Family Free is a good read written by a
thoughtful and skilled writer.”
