Reviews
"Absorbing . . . In masterly fashion, Flynn depicts the unraveling of a marriage--and of a recession-hit Midwest--by interweaving the wife''s diary entries with the husband''s first-person account." -- The New Yorker "Ms. Flynn writes dark suspense novels that anatomize violence without splashing barrels of blood around the pages . . . Ms. Flynn has much more up her sleeve than a simple missing-person case. As Nick and Amy alternately tell their stories, marriage has never looked so menacing, narrators so unreliable." -- The Wall Street Journal "The story unfolds in precise and riveting prose . . . even while you know you''re being manipulated, searching for the missing pieces is half the thrill of this wickedly absorbing tale." -- O: The Oprah Magazine "Ice-pick-sharp . . . spectacularly sneaky . . . impressively cagey . . . Gone Girl is Ms. Flynn''s dazzling breakthrough. It is wily, mercurial, subtly layered and populated by characters so well imagined that they''re hard to part with." --Janet Maslin, The New York Times "An ingenious and viperish thriller . . . Even as Gone Girl grows truly twisted and wild, it says smart things about how tenuous power relations are between men and women, and how often couples are at the mercy of forces beyond their control. As if that weren''t enough, Flynn has created a genuinely creepy villain you don''t see coming. People love to talk about the banality of evil. You''re about to meet a maniac you could fall in love with." -- Jeff Giles, Entertainment Weekly "An irresistible summer thriller with a twisting plot worthy of Alfred Hitchcock. Burrowing deep into the murkiest corners of the human psyche, this delectable summer read will give you the creeps and keep you on edge until the last page." --People (four stars) "It''s simply fantastic: terrifying, darkly funny and at times moving. . . . [ Gone Girl is] her most intricately twisted and deliciously sinister story, dangerous for any reader who prefers to savor a novel as opposed to consuming it whole in one sitting." --Michelle Weiner, Associated Press "Gillian Flynn''s third novel is both breakneck-paced thriller and masterful dissection of marital breakdown. . . . Wickedly plotted and surprisingly thoughtful, this is a terrifically good read." -- The Boston Globe " Gone Girl is that rare thing: a book that thrills and delights while holding up a mirror to how we live. . . . Through her two ultimately unreliable narrators, Flynn masterfully weaves the slow trickle of critical details with 90-degree plot turns. . . . Timely, poignant and emotionally rich, Gone Girl will peel away your comfort levels even as you root for its protagonists--despite your best intuition." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Gillian Flynn''s barbed and brilliant Gone Girl has two deceitful, disturbing, irresistible narrators and a plot that twists so many times you''ll be dizzy." -- Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Flynn is a master manipulator, deftly fielding multiple unreliable narrators, sardonic humor, and social satire in a story of a marriage gone wrong that makes black comedies like The War of the Roses and Who''s Afraid of Virginia Woolf look like scenes from a honeymoon. . . . It is, in a word, amazing." --Yvonne Zipp, The Christian Science Monitor " Gone Girl [is] a thriller with an insane twist and an insidiously realistic take on marriage." -- New York "Brilliantly constructed and consistently absorbing . . . The novel, which twists itself into new shapes, works as a page-turning thriller, but it''s also a study of marriage at its most destructive." -- The Columbus Dispatch
