"A Dickensian sweep and a vast cast of characters, Upadhyay created an ancient world saturated with the spirit of our time and shaped by political ambition and dark vision . . . A grand novel indeed." — Ha Jin
"Dizzyingly complex and dazzlingly written, full of rewards and arch humor for the patient reader." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
