Praise for Ada "Reading Ada confirmed not what I suspected but what I already knew: With each of his books, Mark Haber is building, brick by brick and saint by saint, his immense and immaculate cathedral where style is plot and plot is style. Here, at last and again, the passionate gospel." --Rodrigo Fresán, author of Melvill "With winding sentences puckered and punched by commas, Haber delivers aesthetic pleasure, profligate humor, and terrifying truth. As with the best and sharpest satires, we peasants outside the gates have no choice but to laugh with eyes open wide." --Amanda Goldblatt, author of Hard Mouth "Peering down the cliff of Mark Haber's Ada , one is awed, horrified, and riveted by the motion of this satire on power and mania. A story of desire, betrayal, and possession reveals how tyranny blooms from the petty, this pursuit of a world birthed by chasing the thing that consumes us." --Alina Stefanescu, author of My Heresies Praise for Mark Haber "Haber is one of the most rigorous and serious--and anachronistic--novelists working today." --Becca Rothfeld, The Washington Post "Haber's [writing] is fluent and compelling, often rhapsodic, with a cumulative power to its repetitions.

" --Hal Jensen, Times Literary Supplement "Mark Haber creates something entirely new, and greatly impressive, within the Bernhardian universe." --Chloe Aridjis, author of Thin Skin.
