“A compulsively readable novel, Tasmania evokes the probing, introspective spirit of W. G. Sebald’s The Rings of Saturn and Olga Tokarczuk’s Flights. Giordano has written an urgent and moving book that looks with unflinching honesty at the crises of our troubled moment, as well as the fragile spaces of hope and connection in the midst of the storm.” —Scott Guild, author of Plastic Praise for The Solitude of Prime Numbers: “Mesmerizing...An exquisite rendering of what one might call feelings at the subatomic level.” —New York Times “Giordano’s passionate evocation of being young and in despair will resonate strongly with readers.” —USA Today “Elegant and fiercely intelligent...[a] singular love story.” —Elle
