"It is to the immense credit of Kurtz... that he has written such a thoughtful and fluid meditation on the subject [of practicing]."
—Dave Itzkoff, The New York Times
“'Practicing' is a fantastic example of what memoir as a literary form can best deliver: a person delving honestly, profoundly and fearlessly into one aspect of life, not necessarily coming up with answers so much as struggling in the face of life's big questions.”
—Samantha Dunn, The Los Angeles Times
"...a sensuous, evocative memoir about love lost and regained...."
—Chuck Leddy, The San Francisco Chronicle
“Practicing is elegant, methodical and deeply engaging. It is science and poetry in one book.”
