Raft

“Fun and imaginative … just the kind of trip we all need right now.”

– David Crosby

“Starting with an unlikely comic premise, Stu Krieger has created a memorable, funny, and surprisingly touching family tale.”

–Meryl Gordon (Mrs. Astor Regrets and Bunny Mellon)

“RAFT is an absolutely hilarious and heartwarming family story with a very clever off-the-wall twist. Stu Krieger’s second novel nailed the speech of both parents and two teenagers. Something, as a writer, I know first-hand, is extremely difficult. The graduation and aquarium antics had me in hysterics. I actually fell in love with a penguin! I know you don’t know me, but trust me on this ... you’re going to love it!!!”

–Laura Numeroff (If You Give a Mouse a Cookie)

“Stu Krieger’s L.A. is a riotous landscape of family—human and animal—and the myriad ways all these beings try to discern who they are, who they love, and what they’re willing to do for happiness.”

–Susan Straight (National Book Award Finalist, Mecca and In the Country of Women)

“Stu Krieger, a uniquely talented and successful screenwriter, has gifted us all with a magical and surprising, laugh-out-loud novel. It should not be missed. Read it!”

–Parker Stevenson

“I enjoyed RAFT immensely; it’s very entertaining and illuminates a modern dilemma: man’s eternal search for elusive happiness.” 

–Hayley Mills
