Her writing in [Wayward Lives] is a profound act of reclamation, and a simply stunning read." -Maaza Mengiste "Hartman, one of our most brilliant contemporary thinkers, introduced the term 'critical fabulation' into my world. She's a theorist and writer who actually changes what's possible in my thought patterns. It's exciting." -Claudia Rankine "I was inspired, surprised, and deeply moved. . . . [Hartman's] mode is intimate, radical and always alive to the details." -Leslie Jamison "[Wayward Lives] left me awestruck and grateful. I don't think I've ever read anything like it-radical, rigorous, lyrical, attentive. . . . I read this thinking that I want to be wherever Saidiya Hartman is." -Yaa Gyasi "Daring, and often inspiring. . . . Hartman is a tremendously gifted writer with the eye and the lyrical prose of a novelist. . . . The talent to do what Hartman does in [Wayward Lives] is rare." -Annette Gordon-Reed
