Critics Review
Mandel’s talent is clearly visible from the get-go … The beauty of the novel is that its key truths are those the reader arrives at on his or her own, without the help of a straight-line narrative or a dominating perspective … We start with anxiety and end with it, thrumming in the background for us to listen in - or ignore, at both cost and reward * LA Times *
The Singer’s Gun begins like a straightforward crime thriller … But Emily St. John Mandel’s new novel is something far rarer than this classic noir opening suggests … an eminently satisfying thriller * Washington Post *
Mandel has a beautiful writing style * Independent on Sunday *
Brilliant * Boston Globe *
Mandel is an exuberant storyteller * New York Times *
In this intricate novel, her second after Last Night in Montreal, Mandel underscores the notion that everything in life comes with a price tag, and sometimes that cost is remarkably high. … An intriguing and suspenseful read that will appeal to those who like mysteries * Library Journal *
