"A masterfully ambiguous depiction of how the sincere convert is often at risk of becoming a dangerous zealot...
Dartmouth Park provides a powerfully evocative catalyst for thought and feeling."
–New York Times Book Review "I devoured
Dartmouth Park in a single sitting. The sense of dislocation–and location–made it seem like a dream of another life, all of it so lyrical and yet narratively acute. A wonderful achievement." –Jonathan Lethem, award-winning author of
The Feral Detective and
Motherless Brooklyn "A novel that turns a midlife crisis inside out, rewardingly...the result, in Thomson's expert hands, is fast-paced and headlong; the book ends up rewiring the reader's sense of what's banal and what's not. A work about estrangement and solitude that's surprisingly rapid, engaging, light-footed." –
