St. Louis Literary Review
It's absolutely perfect how the title plays out in connecting in this book. An American Tragedy is exactly what this story is from beginning to end. O'Keefe is a dynamic main character, and once again author Flanigan depicts how O'Keefe struggles with the load that he is forced to carry.
