Trade Review
One of the most ambitious, generous, beautiful, indispensable books I've been fortunate enough to read -- Jonathan Safran Foer * Guardian *
See Under: Loveis one of the most disturbing novels I've ever read...When I was already well into it, I'd circle it warily before picking it up again . . . then fall instantly under its spell, for it is wickedly readable -- Edmund White
This novel is so innovative, yet at the same time so readable, that I can only say that it gives the lie to that critical cliche. It is a tour de force of pure storytelling, and a demonstration of both the need for story and the limits of all particular stories. I consider it a triumph * Guardian *
