Every Exit Brings You Home
This is one of those rare stories that feels at once universal and impossibly strange, rooted in the ordinary challenges of the American Dream but lashed to horrors unfolding on the other side of the planet ... The structure of Every Exit Brings You Home is a work of magic. The story shifts between past and present, near and far, as gracefully as dusk gives way to night ... Murr’s deft interweaving of domestic drama and political memory is the novel’s central triumph.
