Critical Praise

"Night Navigation, the story of an almost-year in the lives of a 62-year-old mother and her 37-year-old drug addict son, is so smooth a telling of a rough ride that you'd think it was the author's fourth, fifth or sixth book, not her first…[A] major accomplishment…Ginnah Howard is a writer to watch."

—Washington Times

"[T]he strength of this story pulls Howard's readers along, unable to turn away from a fierce mother and son who are determined to negotiate the future."

—New York Times Book Review
