Rezensionen / Stimmen

. . . an eloquent testament to the human spirit. * The Times * Riveting . . . The best book I've read all year * Ann Patchett * An astonishing tale of survival. * Spectator * A masterful account of exile and human longing, of triumph in the face of all odds. * Los Angeles Times * A gripping narrative, taut to the point of explosion . . . An electrifying, empathetic work of journalism that makes a four-year-old story feel fresh. * Kirkus * Riveting . . . Tobar vividly narrates the miners' lives post-rescue as they come to terms with their life-changing experience and the media frenzy surrounding it. Rich in local color, this is a sensitive, suspenseful rendering of a legendary story. * Publishers Weekly, Most Anticipated Books of 2014 * His narrative cracks along at a suitably breathless pace... you're unlikely to find a more exciting account * Daily Mail * An account that brims with emotion and strength. * USA Today * Tobar plunges the reader into this world of uncertainty with visceral, present-tense prose and careful pacing . . . Whether the story is completely new to you, or if you were one of the millions glued to the news reports and wondering, will they make it-physically, emotionally, spiritually-you'll be greatly rewarded to learn how they did. * New York Times Book Review * Chiseled, brooding . . . As Tobar works his way through each miner's recovery, the TV headlines recede from our memory, and a more delicate series of portraits emerges. * The Washington Post *
