“Second Language is a book you will want to own or give as a gift. The thirteen short stories are compelling and tell about relationships that ring true and stir emotions.”—Splash Magazines


"Wineberg's coming-of-age story of Lena Czernitski, a young Russian Jew who has fled the Ukraine with her family to brave the challenges of assimilation in 1920's Chicago, has all the elements of a classic. It is a lovely novel with a heroine of depth, intelligence, and tremendous heart."—Shelf Unbound  (Judge's comments, interview, and excerpt, On Bittersweet Place, pages 10, 18-23)

A reading at the Bookstore at Chestnut Court by Barbara Keer, Splash Magazines


"Wineberg plays with our phony sense of certainty and entices us instead to live in a probabilistic cloud of opportunity and possibility--far more promising and self-actualizing. Characters in her collection leave behind the variables that have defined their lives--marriage, religion, community--and befriend strangers in hopes of making new connections and finding new joy."—Bloom (Nine Facts That Can Change Your Life)


Bloom Q&A (On Bittersweet Place)
