Johannes Lichtman

“A remarkable thinker.”
—The New York Times

“Lichtman’s brilliant novel of ideas explores the notion of what we owe to others. . . .A sly, lovely, moving gem of a book.”
—Eric Puchner

“Cuts sincerity with the driest of humor.”
—The New Yorker

To see a story while you’re inside it, you need a kind of moral periscope…Lichtman’s new novel is that ingenious periscope, assembled with a watchmaker’s fine hand out of the gem-like splinters of colliding points of view.
—Caleb Crain, author of Overthrow

“One of the most exciting novelists working today.”
—Garth Greenwell

A superb novel about ethical messiness….A sly, potent book about the risks of being wrong and also about the relief of admitting it.
—Idra Novey, author of Take What You Need
