Morison does not write traditional novels, she always in differently and this is what distinguishes him among the great writers that appear in her age.

This is a superior and a historical novel, written in language largely smooth and occasionally beautiful. A Mercy illuminates some dark corners but is less successful as a novel about people attempting to keep their heads above the tide of histories, both personal and otherwise (Mueller,79).
