"A symphonic epic. . . . A big, stunning first novel and an amazing virtual reality machine. . . . Captures the city's dangerous, magnetic allure. . . . A novel of head-snapping ambition and heart-stopping power--a novel that attests to its young author's boundless and unflagging talents." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"Dickensian, massively entertaining, as close to a great American novel as this century has produced." --Stephen King "Dazzling. . . . Endlessly fascinating. . . . A novel whose Whitmanesque arms embrace an entire city of lovers and strivers, saints and killers. . . . City on Fire is an extraordinary performance." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post "A book that is truly that great, rare thing: a wholly inhabitable universe, reflecting back our lives while also offering an exhilarating escape from them." --Rolling Stone "Gorgeous. . . . It really is amazing. . . . Deeply felt. . . . No matter where you come from, who you love or what you do, you can slip into the skin of (almost) any one of his characters and feel the world like a real, round, and living thing closing its fist around you." --NPR "[A] soaring debut. . . . Over the course of Hallberg's magisterial epic, distinctions of class, race, geography, and generation give way to an impression of the human condition that is both ambitious and sublime." --Vanity Fair"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
