Alice Hoffman is a prolific American author of romance, magical realist, and literary novels as well as young-adult fiction. She began publishing in the 1970s and 80s. Her earliest novels were critically acclaimed, but it wasn’t until her 1995 work titled Practical Magic that she became a major bestseller. She has since remained a popular and productive author. In Seventh Heaven, Hoffman provides a novel about an enigmatic single mother who moves to a suburban town in the 1950s and quickly impacts the community. It is a character sketch and reflection on American values. The work received high praise from critics. It is also a favorite among Hoffman readers.
