Review:
"With great feeling and intensity, this is an odd story nevertheless: a strange mix of New Age politics, magical-realism, and multicultural fabulism."
Kirkus, 11/01/2002
Review:"...Gunesekera's prose is spare and muscular, and ultimately it is the writing that rescues his novel....For every moment of vagueness, there is a precise--and often beautiful--description of nature, a vivid action sequence or an all-too-real encounter with violence. Gunesekera's story may be dreamlike, but his prose is resolutely grounded, and the result...is a story that uses realism to transcend reality, to hint at deeper mysteries and more profound truths."
Akash Kapur, New York Times Book Review, 02/23/2003
