Trade ReviewPraise for Two for the Devil: "Vividly chronicles the extraordinary daily lives of the citizens of Krimsk...[Mr. Hoffman's] sympathetic presentation of these characters reveals much about the tension between human desire and belief, about the complexities of conscience and commitment." - New York Times Book Review "First-rate fiction: reminiscent...of such precursors as Sholem Aleichem, but possessed of distinctive individual strengths and firmly rooted in its characters strange new land and even stranger adventures." - Kirkus Reviews "Hoffman fashions a haunting, bittersweet story of exile, dislocation and redemption in the Promised Land...Robust humor, insight into human nature and an absence of sentimentality augment Hoffman's storytelling skills." - Publishers Weekly, starred review
