Critics Review

An outstanding novel * Observer *
A first novel of intricate merit… A rich imagination glitters throughout * Mail on Sunday *
Unexpected and richly imaginative … Full of intellectual descriptions and stylistic diversions * London Review of Books *
A writer of blistering intellect … [Powers is] a novelist of ideas and a novelist of witness, and in both respects, he has few American peers * Los Angeles Times *
