Reviews

A complex treatment of time... An absorbing view of history.
*New York Times Book Review*

Enough plot twists and conspiracy-making ingredients to satisfy the most demanding aficionado of the genre.
*Irish Times*

Fascinating... Powers has a remarkable ability to find metaphors to illustrate the brain processes... terse and heartbreaking.
*Los Angeles Times Book Review*

Grand fiction... Prisoner's Dilemma is magnificent.
*The Nation*

I love and admire this book... I cannot give an adequate sense of its many marvels... One of the most beautiful and baffling dialogues in recent fiction.
*Boston Globe*
