"In Madame Zee, Pearl Luke's deep compassion for our human frailties is unmistakable as she explores the dangers inherent in following passion into belief."
-Gail Anderson-Dargatz, author of The Cure for Death by Lightning and A Recipe for Bees



"Exquisite...Madame Zee takes flight and races toward its fearful end: the consequences of too much knowing."
-Fred Stenson, Giller Prize finalist for The Trade



"Madame Zee is a fascinating fictional biography of a deeply unusual woman. Behind Zee's intelligence lies Luke's own. She offers us a character who, while falling for the seductions of a cult leader, retains the clarity to observe his manipulations -- an adroit and perceptive rendering."
-Catherine Bush, author of The Rules of Engagement and Claire's Head



"Madame Zee is a fascinating story about one woman's struggle to fulfil her gift; Luke vividly evokes both the greedy sensuality of the roaring twenties and the tortured asceticism of a West Coast commune."
-Kathy Page, author of Alphabet and Story of My Face
