Reviews
A cogent, passionate, and surprising story ... populated with remarkable but utterly believable characters. Amazing
A raw, wild, hurtling foray into the tangled realms of sexuality and self-knowledge.
Who? Sarah Jessica Parker in NYC, clutching a copy of My Education by Susan Choi.
"Stunning insight, a deft evocation of the unbridgeable gap between inner and outer life".
[Choi] has never sounded smarter or wittier than she does in her fourth novel, My Education...Few other writers alive today make their sentences work so hard. Try skimming these paragraphs too fast and you ll cut yourself on the sharpened edges of her prose.
Choi wields a dazzling dexterity with language, spicing the novel with gems of precisely-crafted phrasing and slivers of insight into the human psyche.
Compulsively readable .
My Education is sexy, smart and so well-written that it occasionally leaves you gasping.
The novel's assurance - her complicated tale unfolds in effortless first-person - recalls Fitzgerald's narrative mastery.
Both erotic and literary, this is a book that fulfills all the promise of a long, hot summer.
