"Ultimately, Patterson has to come to the same conclusion that “Marlise” realized decades earlier: to gain any semblance of agency in his life, he will have to become someone else entirely and leave his true identity behind. 'I would no longer be a migrant,' he says. 'I would no longer be an American.'"

— The Cleveland Review of Books
