Early praise
"William Loving has crafted a maze of identity and irony that leads to a climax that will stay with the reader long after the last page." -- David Bolton, author of Whispering Pines and Love Thief
​
“As thought-provoking as it is hilarious, Fells Point is a page-turning masterpiece of existential wit and suspense.” -- J. Paul Rieger, author of A Most Unlikely Man and Sunscreen Shower
