Praise for The Candy House
"The novel - with its prismatic plotting and ever-shifting chorus of seekers, kooks, and visionaries - feels less like a house than a honeycomb full of fantastical rooms, each one alive and thrumming with bright, weird humanity." -Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly
"The Candy House is really an incredible feat... astonishing, even a little bewildering! Jenny is shockingly underrated. She should have the kind of fawning sycophants that dudes like Franzen and Denis Johnson do. Let the cult begin herewith!"
-James Hannaham, New York Times Book Review
"This is minimalist maximalism. It's as if Egan compressed a big 19th-century triple-decker novel onto a flash drive... Egan goes all in on the power of storytelling and of fiction."
-Dwight Garner, The New York Times
"A brilliant demonstration of the unquantifiable pleasures of great fiction."
-Ron Charles, The Washington Post
"Radiant... an exhilarating delight...Egan opens windows on entrancing new worlds, in which what happened depends on who's telling the story."
-Laura Miller, Slate
"You don't have to read A Visit From the Goon Squad to love this sibling novel to Egan's stellar hit... complex and intimate."
-Good Housekeeping
"May be the smartest novel you read all year... Fiction at its best... gets at our secret selves in ways the internet can't... Egan's audacity is welcome."
-Mark Athitakis, USA Today
"This is a beautiful exploration of loss, memory and history, a not too subtle critique of what is lost when we live our lives online."
-Allison Arieff, The San Francisco Chronicle
"A fast-paced polyvoiced romp thru America in the grip of a sinister tech that allows others into your mind. EEK!"
-Margaret Atwood, author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments
