"Edges is an elegantly written, quite moving novel that has a lot to say about love, identity, history and the meaning of nationality. The book is worth reading alone for its superb language, but it is gripping and unforgettable as well in its story telling and evocation of place and emotions. It is a wonderful novel by an author with a quite accomplished voice and style, one well deserving a wide and receptive audience.

--Oscar Hijuelos, author of the Pulitzer-prize winning novel, "THE MAMBO KING SINGS SONGS OF LOVE"
