“If the book has a theme beyond the setting, it is time. In the park, Shabazz had more of it to share. In return, everyone pictured granted him theirs.”

“It’s billed (brilliantly and misleadingly) as a true-crime novel, but by the time you get to the shocking crime . . . countless others of varying scales have piled up.”

“There is considerable visual pleasure to be had in her material manipulation, which conspires with the sensitively restored cistern to beautiful effect; the wax textiles look good enough to eat.”

“Siken echoes the adage that in the Southwest, the light will kill you. And he reminds me that the light in much of his work is punishing. . . .”

“The migrant’s experience permeates all aspects of these paintings. Kahraman fixates on her subjects’ eyes . . . . Her fascination is linked to the constant surveillance that immigrants are subjected to.”
