PRAISE
"No one is smarter or funnier about the absurdities and agonies of modern love. reading You is an affair to relish and remember." —Hilma Wolitzer
"You is a wise, witty meditation on the mysteries of love and because the brilliant Jonathan Baumbach is the author, it is also a house of mirrors in which a single relationship is fractured into infinite possibilities and the corridors lead deep into a labyrinth of memory and desire. At every point, You offers us a new way to look at ourselves, startling us with uncanny reflections." —Joanna Scott
"Jonathan Baumbach creates a fresh sense of storytelling." —The Broad Set
"If you are an admirer of the bold and Unexpected, You, like any gesture of love, deserves your regard." —Steven Moore, Los Angeles Times Book Review
