However, I have found Persistent along with Esqueleto a most pleasant experience. My app is only targeting Postgresql. I did some reading on database design, specifically about the importance of normailizing the data. I then designed the the schema and started writing inserts (using Persistent) and queries and updates (using Esqueleto). I am 100% certain that the type safety these languages of these interfaces has prevented numerous bugs.

Thanks for the heads up, I should give Esqueleto a look. The "lowest common denominator" complaint did seem a bit strange to me, because it's exactly what I'm used to doing in LINQ.
