Shimmering * Publishers Weekly * Each part of the novel is accomplished and beautifully written. With its generally melancholy and memorable tone, this excellent book will make readers feel lucky to discover it. Mazeltov to them! * Booklist * A sweet, sly, mournful, and horny coming of age, written with heart-on-the-sleeve and politics in the pants. Mazeltov's passionately talented author has more than earned his title's congratulations and his readers' acclaim -- Joshua Cohen, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of THE NETANYAHUS By turns hilarious and heartbreaking, Eli Zuzovsky's brilliantly observed novel offers a kaleidoscopic view of a young queer man's life, his family and his times, through the lens of his bar mitzvah. Mazeltov is an unforgettable, virtuosic debut. -- Claire Messud, author of THIS STRANGE EVENTFUL HISTORY
