"An American classic to stand with the finest literary achievements of the century."
"It's gripping, frightening and, ultimately, beautiful."
"Vivid, eloquent, ... consistently brilliant."
"Simple yet mysterious, simultaneously cryptic and crystal clear."
"Easily one of the most harrowing books you'll ever encounter."
"Magnificent."
"Devastating ... Extraordinarily lovely and sad. . . . [A] masterpiece."
"Few books can do more; few have done better. Read this book."
This gets my gold star for November.
