Be sure to check out these amazing reviews for Lauren Groff’s Fates and Furies!

“In a swirling miasma of language, plot, and Greek mythology, Groff weaves a fierce and gripping tale of true love gone asunder.” Publishers Weekly goes on to praise Groff’s prose as “variously dewy, defiant, salacious, and bleak—a hurricane of words thrown together on every page… an intoxicating elixir,” even while “so much of the power in this book lies in what’s unspoken.”

Library Journalconcludes that “Like a classic tragedy, Groff’s novel offers high drama, hubris, and epic love, complete with Greek chorus–like asides. A singular and compelling literary read, populated with extraordinary characters; highly recommended.”

Kirkus Reviewsdeclares it an “ambitious, sharply drawn novel,” and observes how “The plotting is exquisite, and the sentences hum; Groff writes with a pleasurable, bantering vividness.” The review concludes with: “An intricate plot, perfect title, and a harrowing look at the tie that binds.”
