""In style, Dignity is an epistolary novel, as if it were Paul writing the Galatians. In theme, Layne takes on our separation from the land via our vampiric computer screens, and commands us back to nature. In focus are many of Layne's longtime obsessions: the housing market, the vulgarities of both rich and poor, the built environment …. A book that starts out cynical and frightening ends with hope.""
