In Mandelbrot the Magnificent, the talented and imaginative, the impeccable Liz Ziemska has fashioned a beautiful story about one famous survivor and the magic and mathematics he's brought to the world. --Karen Joy Fowler Mandelbrot the Magnificent is completely persuasive in its magical-realist rendering of the 'migr' experience in occupied France in World War II. --Jim Shepard Pure delight and a sense of play right up against the gravity and horrors of history; this is writing that moves into different tones with such ease and joy, even at its most serious. --Aimee Bender
