Recensione:

Charles Jaco USA Today Triage will make your palms sweat....Despite the brutality of battle and the terror of surviving, it is not a novel about despair; it is about hope...tightly plotted and unflinchingly unsentimental.

Christopher Dickey The New York Times Haunting...into the sere landscapes of a Hemingwayesque novel about men at war comes [a] conscience straight out of Graham Greene.

New York magazine Triage opens with a stunning set piece...as creepy as Saving Private Ryan's D-Day scene.

Devin Friedman GQ [An] emotionally intelligent novel.

Dan Cryer Newsday Remarkable...riveting...surprise is a key element in Anderson's storytelling....The shocking conclusion is both a dramatic and moral triumph...that such a thoughtful, provocative book also provides so much pleasure is a tribute to Anderson's already formidable talents.

The New Yorker Suspenseful.

Susan Salter Reynolds Los Angeles Times Thrilling.

David Nicholson The Washington Post A sensibility that understands the seriousness of love and life.

Allen Salkin New York Post A brilliant, gripping new book...there are passages in the book that leave a reader's heart beating hard.

Anthony Brandt Men's Journal Triage looks human savagery in the face and doesn't blink....But this is not a despairing book, and that is what makes it so strong....[Anderson] has crafted a story that is acute and moving, one that strips away obfuscation and illusion and tells powerful truths.
