An extraordinary modern novel in the Victorian tradition, Charles Palliser has created something extraordinarya plot within a plot within a plot of family secrets, mysterious clues, lowborn birth, highreaching immorality, and, always, always the fogenshrouded, enigmatic character of 19th centuryLondon itself.So compulsively absorbing that reality disappears . . . One is swept along by those enduring emotions that defy modern art and a random universe: hunger for revenge, longing for justice and the fantasy secretly entertained by most people that the bad will be punished and the good rewarded.The New York TimesA virtuoso achievement . . . It is an epic, a tour de force, a staggeringly complex and tantalizingly layered tale that will keep readers engrossed in days. . . . The Quincunx will not disappoint you. It is, quite simply, superb.Chicago SunTimesA bold and vivid tale that invites the reader to get lost in the intoxicating rhythms of another world. And the invitation is irresistible.San Francisco ChronicleA remarkable book . . . In mood, color, atmosphere and characters, this is Charles Dickens reincarnated . . . It is an immersing experience.Los Angeles Times Book ReviewTo read the first pages is to be trapped for sevenhundred odd more: you cannot stop turning them.The New YorkerFew books, at most a dozen or two in a lifetime, affect us this way. . . . For sheer intricacy and ingenuity, for skill and clarity of storytelling, it is the kind of book readers wait for, a book to get lost in.The Philadelphia Inquirer
