Reviews
Praise forNatasha: "Passionately full of life." --JAMES WOOD,LondonReview of Books "Recalling the work of Isaac Babel, Saul Bellow and Chaim Potok,Natashadisplays such a significant maturity and elegance that it's nothing more than a humble announcement that a new talent with a serious future has come to the fore." --San FranciscoChronicle, "Passionately full of life."-James Wood, London Review of Books "Extraordinary . . . [Recalls] the work of Babel, Roth, Saul Bellow and so many others. Yet Bezmozgis makes these characters, and the state or marginality itself, uniquely his own. His hysterical, merciless, yet open-hearted excavation of the Jewish family in the process of assimilating may give his literary predecessors a run for their money."-Daniel Schifrin, Los Angeles Times Book Review "A latter-day Bernard Malamud . . . It's astonishing how Bezmozgis can summon up the emigre community with such clarity and economy. . . David Bezmozgis isn't almost there. He has arrived, fully mature and wise. These stories aren't just superbly crafted investigations of a particular people and place, but profound illuminations of what it means to grow up in an uncertain, ever-changing world."-Dan Cryer, Newsday "A stunning first collection, characterized by a painful honesty and clarity of vision . . . Like Gogol, Bezmozgis is acutely aware of his characters' shortcomings; as Gogol does, Bezmozgis writes with compassion, quietly reminding us of the hidden beauty within human imperfection."-Julie Orringer, The Believer "Dazzling, hilarious and hugely compassionate narratives [written with] freshness and precision. . . Readers will find themselves laughing out loud, then grasping as Bezmozgis brings these fictions to the searing, startling and perfectly pitched conclusiosn that remind us that, as the Russian writer Isaac Babel said,'no iron can stab the heart so powerfully as a period put in exactly the right place.'
