"From the first few lines that begin The Sympathizer, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary book. Each line is complex and well-constructed, the characters are realistic and morally ambiguous, and the story never falters in terms of pacing. Nguyen is a master at his craft, pushing the limits of English as a language and what is socially acceptable within storytelling. The book is dynamic, exciting, and shocking, and it continues and challenges the tradition of American literature."

"I ended this book with crying because it reminded me of something deeply important that I used to believe in but had forgotten because of the flow of life. This was a beautiful read. I wouldn't say I learned a lot (it already supported some of my beliefs), but that I got reminded of a lot, which is incredibly inspiring in it's own way. Thank you very much for providing us with this wonderful text. "
