"Fascinating.... A wonderful book." -President Obama, interviewed by Jon Meacham inNewsweek(May 25, 2009 issue) "Stunning . . . with echoes ofThe Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald's masterpiece . . . a resonant meditation on the American Dream." -Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times "Exquisitely written. . . . A large fictional achievement, and one of the most remarkable post-colonial books I have ever read. . . .Netherlandhas a deep human wisdom." -James Wood,The New Yorker "I devoured it in three thirsty gulps, gulps that satisfied a craving I didn't know I had. . . . It has more life inside it than ten very good novels." -Dwight Garner,The New York Times Book Review "Elegant.... Always sensitive and intelligent, Netherland tells the fragmented story of a man in exile-from home, family and, most poignantly, from himself." -Washington Post Book World "A wonderful read." -Jonathan Safran Foer "Haunting.... O'Neill's elegant prose makes for a striking read." -Entertainment Weekly "A beautifully written meditation on despair, loss, and exile." -USA Today "Remarkable.... Note-perfect." -Vogue "Outstanding.... A coming-of-middle-age tale." -Newsweek "O'Neill's writing is unendingly beautiful." -The Los Angeles Times "Brilliant.... A post9/11 novel that takes us closer to understanding the emotional wreckage." -GQ "Provocative, luminous.... A fine, darkly glowing novel." -The Boston Globe "A dense, intelligent novel... O'Neill offers an outsider's view of New York bursting with wisdom, authenticity, and a sobering jolt of realism." -Publisher's Weekly (starred review) "O'Neill writes a prose of Banvillean grace and beauty, shimmering with truthfulness, as poised as it is unsettling. He is a master of the long sentence, of the half-missed moment, of the strange archaeology of the troubled marriage. Many have tried to write a great American novel. Joseph O'Neill has succeeded." -Joseph O'Connor, author of Star of the Sea "Somewhere between the towns of Saul Bellow and Ian McEwan, O'Neill has pitched his miraculous tent. Netherland is a novel about provisionality, marginality; its registers are many, one of the most potent being its extremely grown-up nostalgia. The dominant sense is of aftermath, things flying off under the impulse of an unwanted explosion, and the human voice calling everything back." -Sebastian Barry, author of A Long Long Way, "Stunning . . . with echoes ofThe Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald's masterpiece . . . a resonant meditation on the American Dream." -Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times "Exquisitely written. . . . A large fictional achievement, and one of the most remarkable post-colonial books I have ever read. . . .Netherlandhas a deep human wisdom." -James Wood,The New Yorker "I devoured it in three thirsty gulps, gulps that satisfied a craving I didn't know I had. . . .

O'Neill offers an outsider's view of New York bursting with wisdom, authenticity, and a sobering jolt of realism." --Publisher's Weekly(starred review) "O'Neill writes a prose of Banvillean grace and beauty, shimmering with truthfulness, as poised as it is unsettling.
