Review:
"In a cameo-studded book...that echoes RAGTIME, just as it sometimes suggests John Irving in fanciful mode, Mr. Chabon tells a bustling, convoluted story in an eloquent, exceptionally precise voice....Especially impressive about THE ADVENTURES OF KAVALIER AND CLAY is its success in reaching for big settings...and big historical relevance without strain."
Janet Maslin, New York Times, 09/21/2000
Review:"Although suffused with tragedy, THE AMAZING ADVENTURES OF KAVALIER & CLAY proves to be a comic epic, generously optimistic about the human struggle for personal liberation....[T]he depth of Chabon's thought, his sharp language, his inventiveness and his ambition make this a novel of towering achievement."
Ken Kalfus, New York Times Book Review, 09/24/2000
