Industry Reviews

[Our Hero in the Cradle of Confederation] captures the "laissez faire" spirit of our times where, as metaphoric Islander, one may cast an ironic, critical gaze, smell disparity and hypocrisy, and feel desperation within the Island's shores and ideological tides, yet retain "hope" and aspire to "fight back."

--Richard Lemm

Oscillating between the chronotopes of World War II and contemporary North America, [Steinfeld's] narratives form intriguing circuits of connection and disconnection [...]. Steinfeld's conversation with Kafka accords with the view that history's clocks are not in unison and that their worlds split apart and clash in fearful asymmetry.

--Michael Greenstein
