“Dalrymple’s art is impeccable . . . It’s beautiful, dreamy and nightmarishly violent . . . Not for the faint of heart, but what a ride for those who go with the flow.“—Kirkus Reviews

“With its plot in constant flux and scant exposition, it’s easy to get lost in the violent fever dream Dalrymple has concocted. But far from being a detraction, the book’s untethered structure plays into its overall weirdness and elusive premise.“—Publishers Weekly

“Filled with compelling characters and poetic language, this beautiful and poignant novel highlights the unbreakable bond between parent and child, and a people’s passionate dedication to their homeland, despite its many flaws.”—Booklist

“The way [Delijani] describes the tensions between young people in love is extraordinary.”—Associated Press

“The Invisible Mountain winds up being the kind of novel you stay up late to finish and lie awake thinking about. It is breathless, full of tenderness; despite its grim political realities, a faint, fairy-tale quality lights it…But the novel’s triumph—brought to a high polish in an unforgettable final scene—is its ensemble of women and men, bent on living every moment as if on fire, answering the great question of life (how, then, to live?) as passionately, with as much teeth-rattling urgency, as they humanly can.“—San Francisco Chronicle

"With so much distrust, anger, and hate in the air, a genuine expression of welcome is just the balm we so desperately need."—Kirkus

“A historical journey, an exploration of blues music . . . in this unique artistic exploration.” —Booklist, starred review of Yellow Dog Blues
