Review by Rosalind Jackson
of Warpcore SF
Crossing the Meadow is unlike any other ghost story, not merely due to
using the perspective of the ghosts...
...
The author is
very good at intimate portraits of characters, and draws us in through
small details that really bring to life the odious Maria and the
penny-pinching Berto. This is a gentle tale, not quite a love story
but often touching nevertheless...
One of the pleasures of being a ghost is having the ability to spy on
people in their homes without fear of discovery. Reading Crossing the
Meadow is a little like doing just that...
This is a short, intimate book with believable characters and an
original take on the supernatural that will interest anyone who has
ever enjoyed a spot of surreptitious people-watching.

Review by Alice
Holman
of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
CROSSING THE MEADOW could be a depressing novel of death and despair;
instead, Kfir Luzzatto has made it a testimony of hope and a promise
of better things to come.
There is something oddly peaceful about dead
people who can see the living, stand next to them and even get them to
do certain things... This novel is great easy reading for a relaxed summer
evening.

Review by Tyrone

for BETSIE'S LITERARY PAGE
I’ve often wondered about the journey that we take when we pass away.
Does everything fade away or do the memories that we’ve harbored begin
to come to light; causing you to seek answers to forgotten questions?
I’ve often heard of restless spirits roaming our dimension unable to
crossover due to problems or unfinished business. I’ve heard of
spirits who refuse to move on, but not of spirits who choose to enroll
in a job placement program to continue working in the realm between
death and paradise! This fact is the one that comforts me the most and
it is a refreshing theory.
...
There are many characters and plots that weave the complex
fabric that will become this well written story....
The plot is complex and well thought out. This book is entertaining
and worthy of every second of your time. Kfir Luzzatto has written a
winner and I look forward to reading his next book as well!
