Haunting...beautifully written.
(The New York Times Book Review)Epic...transcendent...triumphant.
(Elle)It s among Tayari s many gifts that she can touch us soul to soul with her words.
(Oprah Winfrey)Compelling...spun with tender patience by Jones, who cradles each of these characters in a story that pulls our sympathies in different directions. She never ignores their flaws, their perfectly human tendency toward self-justification, but she also captures their longing to be kind, to be just, to somehow behave well despite the contradictory desires of the heart.
(Washington Post)Jones writes brilliantly about expectations and loss and racial injustice, and how love must evolve when our best laid plans go awry.
(Esquire)Nuanced and evocative... A compelling exploration of the thorny conflicts that drive us apart and bind us, the distorting weight of racism, and how commitment looks across time and generations.
(BBC.com)Tayari Jones is blessed with vision to see through to the surprising and devastating truths at the heart of ordinary lives, strength to wrest those truths free, and a gift of language to lay it all out, compelling and clear. That has been true from her very first book, but with An American Marriage that vision, that strength, and that truth-telling voice have found a new level of artistry and power.
(Michael Chabon, author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay)Heart-wrenching... An American Marriage poses profound questions about what we owe each other, and what injustices we allow to persist.
--(Huffington Post)I love An American Marriage and I m so excited for this book to be in the world. Tayari s novel is timely, thoughtful, and beautifully written. Reading it, I found myself angry as hell, laughing out loud, choking up and cheering. A gem of a book.
--(Jacqueline Woodson, author of Another Brooklyn and Brown Girl Dreaming)A heart-breaking and genuinely suspenseful love story... Tayari Jones has written a complex and important novel about people trapped in a tragic situation, struggling to reconcile their responsibilities and desires.
--(Tom Perrotta, author of Little Children)Tayari Jones is the author of four novels, including Silver Sparrow, The Untelling, and Leaving Atlanta. Jones holds degrees from Spelman College, Arizona State University, and the University of Iowa. She serves on the MFA faculty at Rutgers and blogs on writing at www.tayarijones.com/blog.
