Recenzii
"The Fifty-First State is an embrace of a novel—warm, intimate, enveloping—and, like all the best embraces, it starts with a thrill and ends before you are entirely ready to let go. I read it in one sitting and would have found a way to do the same even if it were twice as long."
—Yael Goldstein Love, author of The Passion of Tasha Darsky
