Praise for Fisherman's Blues:
"No polemical treatise, Badkhen's Fisherman's Blues offers a critical take through subtle and beautiful methods of storytelling. It creates a remarkable snapshot of lives we'd otherwise never know." -Minneapolis Star-Tribune
"In elegiac vignettes, Badkhen portrays the trick and snare of a heroic and punishing profession...Fisherman's Blues is Badkhen's ode to a community's fraught ties to geography, and a gentle lament for an existence eroding at the shoreline." -Dallas Morning News
"In the span of 300 pages, Anna Badkhen will transform you from knowing nothing about this Senegalese community to being completely transfixed by their stories." -Paste Magazine
