few literary works have better demonstrated their veracity lately than this glorious collection -- Pankaj Mishra * FINANCIAL TIMES *
Some of these stories are comic masterpieces, some embody as dark a vision of the universe as you are likely to encounter and all of them showcase a writer grappling with the great questions of modern life. * GRANTA *
Englander has written a fine collection, as intricately patterned across its length as a novel, although its stories are set in various decades and locations... a book of cautious, crafted, crafty stories that catch you off guard again and again. * THE SUNDAY TIMES *
This collection of short stories is covered with enthusiastic quotes from American literati. This, you may think, is either going to be fantastic or hyped nonsense. Thankfully, it's the former. * EMERALD STREET *
A remarkable collection * THE GUARDIAN *
The titular story - a twist on Raymond Carver's, of a similar name - jumps from brilliant Woody Allen-esque dialogue and comedy to darkness. * THE INDEPENDENT *
Englander deals with powerful questions of morality, history and vengeance. * THE DAILY TELEGRAPH *
His stories are moving and thought-provoking, pwerful and hilarious by turns. * NEWBOOKS magazine *
An amusing and moving collection. * THE SUNDAY BUSINESS POST *
This collection by one of America's best short-story writers displays his inimitable capacity to shock, sadden and simultaneously entertain in his explorations of Jewish history and politics. * THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH SEVEN Magazine *
remarkable precision, agility and depth * BIG ISSUE IN THE NORTH *
