Marge Piercy is every bit as imaginative as H. G. Wells or Isaac Asimov or any of the great fantasists, but she is also a fierce and devoted activist who wants us to be more than passive readers.

A triumph of the imagination. Rich, complex, impossible to put down. Every new novel by Marge Piercy is cause for celebration

Piercy’s vision of a post-greenhouse-effect, nuclear-blasted world interlaced with the Prague ghetto of 1600, and the efforts of certain people to stay human in both, is threaded with the questions: What is it to be human? … What does `life’ mean?… What are the limits of creativity? As always, Piercy writes with high intelligence, love for the world, ethical passion and innate feminism

HE, SHE AND IT, a ground-breaking example of Jewish feminist fabulation, is a triumph

One of our boldest writers...like Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, He, She and It finds disturbing trends in contemporary culture.

An allegorical tour de force

Marge Piercy confronts large issues in this novel: the social consequences of creating anthropromorphic cyborgs, the dynamics of programming both humans and machines, the ethical question of our control of machines that might feel as well as think.

...a philosophical romance...the story she tells is at once new and old...Vividly drawn...

Ambitious and absorbing...Woven through this incredible plot line is a magical story from the past...a very readable fable about the dangers of creating intelligent beings...Ominously real'

Hauntingly melancholic and richly detailed

Leipciger writes with great compassion and precision, her language is an exquisite mix of muscle and grace

Writing to sink into. Just stunning.

Gripping from the first page.

Captivating and thought-provoking . . . Leipciger is a masterful and brilliant storyteller . . . a fascinating and enthralling must-read.

‘A curious, surprising and moving story about two men who— to put it one way — become involved with an aardvark and thereby condemn themselves to death.’

Like A.S. Byatt like with a demented sense of humor… [Jessica Anthony] holds up a funhouse mirror to our own political media in the age of spin…with sentences reminiscent of Joyce’s Dubliners and the later works of T. S. Eliot.

A wild ride and might just be the perfect antidote to the wild ride we’re in in real life].

The structure doesn’t so much intrigue as ensnare you, weaving its cat’s cradle of a plot as you lie there, strapped to a table... “Enter the Aardvark” is brutally suited to our moment of absurd political theater.

A blisteringly innovative and outrageous novel...If you're searching for a sharp, looking-glass view into the far end of contemporary politics, look no further. Jessica Anthony's novel has the pacing of a thriller with satirical verve of Nathanael West.

'Enter the Aardvark is one wild ride: a condemnation, a haunting, a song of love, a madcap political thriller—and it is absolutely unputdownable.' LAURA VAN DEN BERG, author of THE THIRD HOTEL

'Hilarious, moving, ingenious... Enter the Aardvark is an absolute original.'
