"A meditation on the unspoken pains and contradictions of motherhood. Its story unspools all the raw, knotted tensions that go into making a family...Choosing a rambling van over a 401(k) isn't a sign of delinquent parenting in Ng's universe; it's just one of a series of possible paths, with its own unique pleasures and pitfalls." -Refinery29
"Unmissable...Ng's psychological insight is acute, yet generous, ...Little Fires Everywhere examines the cruelties that we unwittingly inflict on those we claim to love." ―Claire Fallon, HuffPost's Best Fiction Books of 2017 "Takes unerring aim at upper-middle-class America's blind spots...a nuanced study of mothers and daughters and the burden of not belonging to our families or our communities." -- Vogue"Totally absorbing, each character drawn so well it makes it impossible to decide whose side you're on." -- Marie Claire
"Ng writes with the wisdom of a hundred lives lived, churning out complex characters mostly sympathetic, sometimes loathsome, but all startlingly human." --HarpersBazaar.com
"Fans of novelist Celeste Ng's debut, Everything I Never Told You, and devotees of her resistance-ready Twitter feed can rejoice...The story drifts effortlessly between characters; each is full and memorable as they coax the novel to its fiery climax. Ng reminds us that action is a choice, and you'll want to keep reading until the last irreversible actions play out." --Bust "Couldn't be more timely... Little Fires Everywhere might just be the signpost that we need, pointing a way forward with the gentle suggestion that sometimes doing the right thing means breaking some rules." -Paste "Compelling...Little Fires Everywhere invests all of its emotional energies in the relationship between mothers and their children...in Ng's precisely rendered perfect suburb." -Vox "Ng's taut class drama is calibrated for fireworks." -New York Magazine, Books to Read This Fall "Written with deep empathy and vivid characters who feel true to life, Little Fires Everywhere is a captivating, insightful examination of motherhood, identity, family, privilege, perfectionism, obsession, and the secrets about ourselves we try to hide." -Buzzfeed "There are few modern writers as brilliant at capturing the complexities of a family as Celeste Ng...The book is smart, nuanced, and exhilarating--but more than anything, Little Fires Everywhere is a gorgeous exploration of motherhood in its many forms, and the many different paths that women travel to get there." --Shondaland.com "Ng's uncanny ability to embody multiple viewpoints makes for a powerful, revelatory novel." -BBC.com, Ten Books to Read in September "The un-put-downable story that everyone will be talking about this Fall. A must read for book clubs." -PopSugar "Equal parts clever, relatable, surprising and unsettling... Ng covers a lot of ground here, from class nuance to the nature of conformity. But the story really shines when she examines complex mother-daughter relationships and how they work...until they don't."-- PureWow "Engrossing...Ng's characters are authentic and complex, but it's her confident narration that will invite readers to settle in for the ride--a storyteller who knows what she's doing is at the wheel...With each revelation, Little Fires Everywhere grows more propulsive and insightful, boring through the placid surface of American suburbia." --Dallas Morning News "Ng has one-upped herself with her tremendous follow-up novel... a finely wrought meditation on the nature of motherhood, the dangers of privilege and a cautionary tale about how even the tiniest of secrets can rip families apart... Ng is a master at pushing us to look at our personal and societal flaws in the face and see them with new eyes... If "Little Fires Everywhere" doesn't give you pause and help you think differently about humanity and this country's current state of affairs, start over from the beginning and read the book again." --San Francisco Chronicle "The truth is messy for everyone in Little Fires Everywhere. As she did so well in Everything I Never Told You, Ng crafts sympathetic backstories for the characters that make their decisions understandable if not entirely acceptable. She also creates layered portraits, especially of the girls and women, to raise questions about what mothers can give and what their children need when no one can stick to the rules."--St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Ng's talent for depth of story and character development shines and will stay with you long after you've finished the book." --Richmond Times-Dispatch "Immersive and thought-provoking...Hang on and prepare to be mesmerized as you meet two families in idyllic Shaker Heights, Ohio." --The Missourian "A haunting, layered story of mothers and daughters, and how they attract and repel each other." - Seattle Times "A multilayered, tightly focused and expertly plotted narrative...A deeply impressive novel with the power to provoke and entrance." --Minneapolis Star Tribune "One of the best novels of the fall is an emotional tale about motherhood, class and so much more... Everything I Never Told You, was good, but this is better." --AARP.org "Mesmerizing...The result is a deftly woven plot that examines a multitude of issues, including class, wealth, artistic vision, abortion, race, prejudice and cultural privilege." --BookPage "Ng's best-selling first novel Everything I Never Told You proved her deft hand at crafting family dramas with the deep-rooted tension of a thriller, a skill she puts to pitch-perfect effect in her latest entry...that is equal parts simmering and soulful." --HarpersBazaar.com"Sobre este título" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
