From the author of Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonder, Calamities of Exile combines three gripping narratives that afford a sort of double CAT scan into the natures of both modern totalitarianism and timeless exile. |Beautiful but harrowing chronicles of three exiles that probe the moral and personal risks of their encounters with totalitarianism. . . . Piercing and timely.|—Kirkus Reviews, starred review |Weschler . . . combines a novelist's gift for drama with the objectivity and research skills of a journalist. . . . The result is three gripping profiles of very human but also extraordinary men.|—Publishers Weekly |[Weschler's] thorough accounting of the men's covert operations, assumed identities and strained relationships with fathers, wives, and colleagues creates a disturbing triptych of the perils of totalitarianism.|—Lance Gould, New York Times Book Review |Weschler tells these three tragic tales with an admirable combination of psychological penetration, intellectual thrust, concision and compassion.|—Francis King, Spectator |Endlessly absorbing. . . . Breathtaking.|—Jeri Laber, Los Angeles Times Book Review
