“A brilliant debut...Meng Jin’s gift merges science, politics and art: the kind of audacity our world needs now.”
— Gina Apostol
“...Ambitious in the best ways: meticulously observed, daringly imagined, rich in character and history... Jin poses profound questions: how might we know ourselves, or the people we love? And what truths, if any, travel with us?”
— Claire Messud
“A powerful story about family, immigration and the things we inherit along the way... This is a stunning, literary debut.”
