Review:

Magnificent and moving.--David Ulin

Of novelists in Powers's generation with whom he is often compared--Franzen, Vollmann, Wallace--none equals Powers's combination of consistent production, intellectual range, formal ingenuity, and emotional effect.--Tom LeClair

For sheer bravado in constructing sentences, few authors of contemporary fiction can surpass Powers.--Ted Gioia

Part of the fun of reading [Powers] is to see how he wriggles out of his own snares. But a greater thrill is to join with him in untangling the most urgent and confounding puzzles of our age.--Nathaniel Rich

One long express-train ride to the gorgeous. And the scenery is as sublime as ever.--Laura Miller

Orfeo is that rare novel truly deserving of the label 'lyrical'...Powers offers a profound story whose delights are many and lasting.--Harvey Freedenberg

Orfeo benefits from the deep sympathy Powers seems to feel for the brilliant and troubled protagonist he has created...[It] establishes beyond any doubt that the novel is very much alive.--Troy Jollimore
