These are stories about ordinary folk, largely Maori, leading ordinary lives. That they are so illuminated (and illuminating) is a mark of Grace's incomparable skill and competence.
Michael King, Metro
Never before have I read in a short story so many layers of relationships in such a compact form. Never before have I been told so much without it being directly stated. And so elegantly.
Warwick Roger, Auckland Sun
Electric City has remarkable power for such a little book. Each word seems to work harder and carry more weight of meaning than one usually expects of prose.
Ann French, NZ Listener
