Reviews
Alarmingly good . . . both a Great American Novel as well as a great American novel... aches with all-new relevance.Guardian
A superb debut novel . . . could well be the most ambitious novel of the year... It seems like Hill is a writer who can do pretty much what he wants.Daily Telegraph
Compulsive and crazily entertainingAnthony Quinn, Observer
Impressive that a debutant, Nathan Hill, with his scintillating The Nix has given us a character who comes close to out-Trumping Trump . . . Just one of the many pleasures of this engaging story of a mother and son whose private travails become front-page news.New Year Highlights, Observer
