Críticas:
The Round House is an extraordinary, engrossing novel, which should live long in the memory. (The Independent on Sunday)
The Round House showcases [Erdrich's] extraordinary ability to delineate the ties of love, resentment, need, duty and sympathy that bind families together...[a] powerful novel. (New York Times)
Erdrich has achieved an impressive trick; a spellbinding read, an earnest message and fierce emotional punch. (Sunday Telegraph)
A rare insight into the dilemma of an adolescent caught between two cultures. (Mail on Sunday)
A compelling coming-of-age story ... [Erdrich] is a gifted storyteller who brings all these characters and tales together with sureness and grace. (Indpendent)
Echoes of Stand By Me ... a classic coming-of-age narrative. (The Observer)
Detailed and nuanced, it is Erdrich's portrayal of the Native American reservation that makes The Round House stand out as a work of literary fiction. (Sunday Express)
Emotionally compelling...Joe is an incredibly endearing narrator, full of urgency and radiant candor...the story he tells transforms a sad, isolated crime into a revelation about how maturity alters our relationship with our parents, delivering us into new kinds of love and pain. (Washington Post)
A powerful novel worth reading. (The Scotsman)
Erdrich is brilliant at using dialogue to capture the teenage psyche....The parallels with To Kill a Mockingbird are obvious, but it is the soundtrack to Rob Reiner's classic coming-of-age film Stand by Me that spooled through my mind as I followed Joe and his mates through their long, hot, life-changing summer. (The Economist)
