The
Atlanta Journal-Constitution groups Pearl with Jonathan
Franzen and Richard Powers as adding to "the
growing genre of novel being written nowadays -- the
learned, challenging kind that does not condescend."
Globe and Mail declares him "a writer of
rare talents,"
Library Journal says "Pearl has proven himself
a master," and author Caleb Carr declares The Poe
Shadow "confirms Pearl's position at the very forefront of contemporary
novelists." Pearl has been named one of The Next Big Things by
