“With soaring language and impeccable historical research, Josaphat captures the rhetoric and hyperbole of the time”

The Los Angeles Times · Lauren LeBlanc · Rave
“The attraction between Nettie and Melvin feels predestined, but Josaphat takes her time. Indeed, it took me a long minute to get used to this novel’s surprising blending of genres”
