Reception

Girija Sankar, reviewing the volume for New Pages, wrote that "Phoning Home is a worthy addition to the pantheon of great American essays and Appel proves himself to be an astute observer and chronicler of the modern human condition."^[8] Bryan Monte in Amsterdam Quarterly wrote, "What makes Appel’s essays so interesting and unique is his candid, statistical or professional approach and/or non-melodramatic description of his relatives’ experience."^[9]
