Financial Times
A psychological thriller, a flawed love story, a study of authenticity in emotions, a commentary on America's relations with itself and the world, humanity and ecology ... <b>undoubtedly magnificent</b>
The Times
<b>An exhilarating narrative feat ... He is a formidable talent</b>, and this is a lucid, fiercely entertaining novel
- Sebastian Faulks, Washington Post
<b>Powers's most accessible novel ... a novel of richness and complexity</b>, never dry or condescending, always weaving its way towards an unsettling emotional climax
Guardian
An eloquent style, a strongly localised setting and a wealth of arcane and intricately researched detail ... <b>the novel is full of character, in cast and locale, and it impressively manages to be both meditative and compelling</b>
- Hugo Barnacle, Sunday Times
