## Reception

A Guardian review of Confessions of a Falling Woman wrote "While Dean alternates between male and female narrators, there is an uncomfortable sameness." but concluded "...in these controlled, purposeful, slightly mocking stories, Dean vividly illuminates the present too." The Financial Times wrote "She (Dean) knows the frailties and egocentricities of her thespian subjects well - and writes about them with wry eloquence."
