I'd just like to share a little of what people are saying about my debut novel, Sabrina's Window ...

"With his trademark grace, elegance and economy, Al Riske captures the heart and teases the imagination in Sabrina's Window."
- Greg Bardsley, author of the novel Cash Out

"This book invites you in and then shuts the door quietly behind you, allowing you to share moments between characters in a private space with an atmosphere of intimacy that may leave you afraid to breathe for fear of intruding."
- Douglas Edwards, author of I'm Feeling Lucky.

“Al Riske’s writing is a gift. With uncommon grace and clarity, he arranges the details of our everyday lives into a sort of poetry. In Sabrina’s Window, seventeen-year-old Joshua and 31-year-old Sabrina are searching for themselves when they find each other, forming a bond that is as unlikely as it is deep and abiding. Reading Riske’s novel, I was reminded of how fragile and magnificent we humans are, how silly and petty … and absolutely generous we can be.”
- Judy Clement Wall, ZebraSounds

"Al Riske captures the currents of love, desire and temptation coursing through all of us, and shows us how an unlikely friendship helps a boy become a man."
- Robert Baty, author of Vintage Conner and The Girl in the MGA ( )
