"A literary piece that blends fact and fiction, making protagonists of real people and asking very deep questions about the history, nostalgia and loss."Kel Munger, "Sacramento News & Review"
"You would think that by now every and any thing that could have been written about the murder of the president has been said a dozen times over...Yet this outstanding piece of non-fiction fiction from Adam Braver manages to do so, and thus makes the book very much worth the time and money to buy and read." Neil Flowers, Feminist Review
"Braver s use of multiple viewpoints, engaging personal insight, and short blocks of prose propel readers through this impressive example of historical fiction.""Library Journal"
"Adam Braver has done something that might have seemed impossible not long agohe's created a fresh look at the events of November 22, 1963...Braver has found a way to once again dip into this event that shattered a nation, and reminds us of how devastating a day it was without simply re-hashing what others have written before. It's a bold task for a writer, begin to write about something that every reader picking the ball up already thinks they know the ending to, but Braver was more than up to the task."Dan Wickett, Emerging Writers Network
"This is historical fiction at its best: intensely researched and beautifully written."Erika D., Book Bargain Reviews
"With a captivating mix of fact and fiction, Braver chronicles the events surrounding JFK's assassination to moving effect." "Fort Dodge Today"
"One may feel drawn into the experience of various characters, while simultaneously treading above some darker, plunging depth. At other moments, there is only the residue of memory, the granite presence of fact...[Braver] writes with the seductive concision of an alternate commission, a tautness that gives authority to speculation and authenticity to the emotional valences, retrained as they are." Ron Slate, On the Seawall
"The successes of "November 22, 1963" lie in Braver s ability to gently and respectfully reside, like a professional surgeon might, in the stomachs and minds of the people who lived through that day...Halfway through "November 22, 1963," you realize the novel is somehow not about JFK at all, but about us. A lesser writer would have failed at piecing this story together in such a way that we are okay reliving that monumentally awful day, but in Braver s hands, we come back to the present wiser versions of ourselves, if also a bit sadder." PDX Writer Daily
"Braver s novel shows what can be done when a writer delves deeply into the textures and facts of a historical event about which we thought we knew everything. Of course we did not; we never know everything. His curiosity and reconstruction brings to life the human drama in a way that Oliver Stone and a roomful of conspiracy buffs never could. Yet the conspiracy buffs get all the press. Braver s novel deserves a bigger share."Don Graham, "Texas Observer"
"Spellbinding...a mesmerizing tidal wave of facts, portraits, episodes, and stories...It's a memorable novel about a day the nation would like to forget and needs to remember."Barbara Ardinger, "ForeWord Magazine"
"Adam Braver has crafted a fantastic novel weaving real events with careful fiction, sweeping us back to Dallas on the day of the JFK assassination." Elizabeth Lopeman, "Eugene Magazine"
"[Braver] doesn't overreach. Instead, he recounts that horrible day in November with no small measure of empathy, 'obliterating a moment' in his own words and taking it back to a place 'where even in violence the world seemed a little softer.'"the "San Diego Union-Tribune"
..".Braver shows himself to be a writer of acute judgment and talent. The degree of attention paid by the author to the micro-level of history lends his novel a humanity and perspective that had, I feared, been drained from popular representations of the assassination." Karl Whitney, "3: AM Magazine"
