A traditional comedy of manners employs an abundance of wit and insouciance to skewer the deplorable aspects of high society — and the prevalence of appearance over substance in particular. DeWitt’s absolute mastery over this approach is a thing of beauty: every nuance, scene, character, and snippet of dialogue is pitch perfect … French Exit includes multiple layers of meaning and social commentary, wrapped up in a whip-smart package that cracks with wit and wordplay … DeWitt proves that while The Sisters Brothers may have made his name as an author, it was far from a singular success.” — \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eQuill \u0026 Quire\u003c\/em\u003e, STARRED REVIEW\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","OtherText_Review_7_Src":"Quill \u0026amp; Quire, STARRED REVIEW","OtherText_Review_8":"\u003cp\u003e“[DeWitt] is a masterful storyteller who propels narrative with witty, weird vignettes and digressions.” — \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eLiterary Review of Canada\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","OtherText_Review_8_Src":"Literary Review of Canada","OtherText_Review_9":"\u003cp\u003e“Darkly comic, perfectly brilliant … Let deWitt take you along on this dizzying, wild ride; you’ll love every second of it, and then hop back to the beginning for another go.
