What They're Saying
Critics Review
“In a deceptively simple story, Hersey has captured all the magic, the terror and the drama of that extraordinary stretch of water….Even in Mr. Hersey’s hands, the American’s discoveries of his own mind and of the Chinese people are dwarfed by the laws, the demands and the ageless vitality of the Yangtze.” – The New York Times Book Review
“A rewarding novel; it is clearly thought and beautifully projected on the screen of the imagination.” – Atlantic
