The New York Times Review of THE RED LOTUS

I don't normally do this. But I am gobsmacked and grateful. Truly humbled.

Sarah Lyall of the New York Times has weighed in on The Red Lotus:

“Terrific. . .[an] elegant noose of a plot. . .Bohjalian is a pleasure to read. He writes muscular, clear, propulsive sentences. . .As suspenseful as it is, The Red Lotus is also unexpectedly moving — about friendship, about the connections between people and, most of all, about the love of parents for children and of children for parents. Bohjalian is a writer with a big heart and deep compassion for his characters.” — Sarah Lyall, The New York Times

My deepest thanks to Sarah Lyall and the New York Times -- and to all of you here on Goodreads for your faith in my work.
