Praise for David Bergen
"David Bergen's command is breathtaking, and Stranger is a work of genius. There is not one sentence out of place in this book, not one missed stitch. This is a novel with the tension of The Road and the moral heft of The Power and the Glory. His work belongs to the world, and to all time. He is one of our living greats."-Matthew Thomas, New York Times-bestselling author of We Are Not Ourselves
"The gorgeous lyricism of David Bergen's latest novel recalls the atmosphere of Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea."-Maclean's
"Stranger is an engrossing human exploration of displacement and inequality. . . . Bergen paints a dire reality that isn't far off from the current state of affairs in the United States. Stranger feels like a caution, warning of the dangers of continued disunity and the growing rift from inequality."-Toronto Star
"Inventive and electrifying. . . . Skilled and gutsy. . . . Brilliant and utterly convincing. . . . [Stranger] reminds us that even in the best-known stories, something unexpected is always lurking, if you go deep enough."-Globe & Mail
"David Bergen has written arguably his best novel. . . . The book manages the rare feat of being profound and important but at the same time absolutely gripping."-Quill & Quire
"At once grand and intimate, Stranger is an epic story with a very human heart."-Rachel Giese, Chatelaine
