Rezensionen

"Breathe is a fever dream of a novel, and it's as an allegory of grief that it most sparkles. . . . Breathe is also a moving meditation on grief time, where there is no beginning, no end, and 'each hour, each day, passes with excruciating slowness yet it is all happening very quickly.'. . . Oates lands the book's wonderful ending. . . . Surprising and inevitable." - New York Times Book Review

"Breathe is the highly affecting story of a woman facing the unimaginable loss of her spouse. . . . It's hard to know what is real and what is imagined as the novel rushes toward its shocking and ambiguous ending." - Associated Press

"Effective and harrowing." - Santa Fe New Mexican

"Powerful. . . . Fecund with fear and anguish, and driven by raw, breathless narration, this hallucinatory tale will not disappoint. Oates is on a roll."
- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Gut-wrenching and devoid of sentimentality. . . . Recommended." - Library Journal
