Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney, author of The Nest and Good Company, says of the book "Within the first few pages of this book, I knew I was in the hands of a masterful storyteller. The Latinist is imaginative, propulsive, and wildly intelligent. What a joy to encounter a thrilling and singular new voice in fiction."
