Reviews

Vivid and immediate . . . one of the best pieces of writing Turow has done . . . This novel provides a showcase for Turow's storytelling skills
The author's sharp evocation has an assurance barely hinted at in his earlier books . . . there are nuances in his writing a world away from such contemporaries as Grisham. . . vivid
Ordinary Heroes, like all of Turow's fiction, derives its considerable power from its depiction of a lawyer's disillusionment, his understanding of the dark ironies that await anyone with an absolute belief in the rule of justice
