Review:
"Michael Chabon, is, simply, the coolest writer in America."--Christian Science Monitor
"A profound pleasure."--New York magazine
"A haunting novella."--Publishers Weekly
"Brilliant and unswervingly entertaining."--The Forward
"Exuberant...the real mystery is how Chabon managed to fit so much hope and humanity into such a brief tale."--BookPage
"Watching Chabon skillfully zigzag between literary and genre is half the fun of the book...refreshing."--Miami Herald
"Chabon's writing here is elegant and limber...[The Final Solution] is a little mystery story with big ideas."--San Francisco Chronicle (Best Books of 2004)
"One of the best-written American novels published this fall . . . an experiment by a master."--The New York Sun
"Delightful...and deceptively profound...Chabon shows his greatness."--Louisville Courier Journal
"The writing is everything that Chabon's fans expect--gorgeous, muscular, mildly melancholic...wonderfully executed."--Baltimore Sun
