If the Ice Had Held

"If the Ice Had Held is a stunning novel. From its very first pages, I was captivated by the vivid intimacy of Wendy J. Fox's prose and her generous sense of character. Indelible, insightful, and deeply moving, If the Ice Had Held illustrates the complex bonds of family--the terrible ways we hurt one another, the sacrifices we make to save one other." - Jillian Medoff, bestselling author of This Could Hurt
 
"If the Ice Had Held, at its heart a story about second chances, is both haunting and luminous. Fox has crafted an intricate mosaic shimmering with gorgeous prose." - Heather Bell Adams, author of Maranatha Road

"The Pull of It, Wendy J. Fox’s first novel, is palliative care for the neurotic American attachment to routines of housekeeping, childrearing, and career building." - Patrick Thomas Henry
"Wendy J. Fox makes us wonder what is better than being home. She takes us back to our primitive state of needing security, of wanting to know that we belong and that we belong nowhere else. She tells us to never settle for anything else than what we hope to be true." - JMWW
"Her stories are crafted jewels: elegant, glittering, cutting."

​
Wendy J. Fox’s tough, wise novel tells a poignant story of one woman’s struggle to tame the contradictions of family and freedom, habit and impulse, obligation and desire. 'The Pull of It' walks a wire of exquisite tension between the things that pull us home and those that pull us away. -Shawn Vestal, author of Daredevils

From the Raleigh Review

Novels are large landscapes...short stories are more often still lifes—the angle of light on a peach, a bowl, a knife—illuminating small moments...Wendy J. Fox helps us see those moments.
