Reviews of Breathe at Every Other Stroke
"Set predominantly in the Pacific Northwest, Ms. Gullard's quiet stories explore the small victories of domesticity, shining a porch light on the decisive instants when individuals somehow regain a measure of control over lives derailed by trauma or stalled by circumstance."
New York Times Book Review - Sarah Ferguson
"A debut collection from a remarkably empathetic and versatile new talent....A rich, readable, wonderfully varied collection."
