Reviews coming in for The Secret History of Las Vegas
Getting some nice Review coverage of The Secret History of Las Vegas. Here are a couple recent ones from the LA Times and The New York Times Book Review
“What lifts the novel is its energy, the audacity of Abani’s imagination, and most of all the breadth of vision that supplies its moral context. The Secret History of Las Vegas has a global sweep and – what’s often aspired to, but rarely achieved in a novel – a feeling of thematic unity.” — Marcel Theroux, New York Times Book Review
“It’s Tony Hillerman as filtered through J.M. Coetzee, a moving, strange and savagely funny book.” — Marc Weingarten, Los Angeles Times
