Product Details

Praise

“One word: bravo.”The New York Times Book Review
 
“Truly powerful . . . Beautiful Children dazzles its readers on almost every page. . . . [Charles Bock] knows how to tug at your heart, and he knows how to make you laugh out loud, often on the same page, sometimes in the same sentence.”Newsweek
 
“Exceptional . . . This novel deserves to be read more than once because of the extraordinary importance of its subject matter.”The Washington Post Book World
 
“Magnificent . . . a hugely ambitious novel that succeeds . . . Beautiful Children manages to feel completely of its moment while remaining unaffected by literary trends. . . . Charles Bock is the real thing.”The New Republic
 
“A wildly satisfying and disturbing literary journey, led by an author of blazing talent.”The Dallas Morning News
 
“Wholly original—dirty, fast, and hypnotic. The sentences flicker and skip and whirl.”Esquire
 
“An anxious, angry, honest first novel filled with compassion and clarity . . . The language has a rhythm wholly its own—at moments it is stunning, near genius.”—A. M. Homes
 
“From start to finish, Bock never stops tantalizing the reader.”San Francisco Chronicle
 
“Rich and compelling . . . captures the hallucinogenic setting like a fever dream.”Los Angeles Times
