"So extravagantly witty and smart that it's making everything else I've read recently seem drab."
-Ron Charles, Senior Editor at the Washington Post Book Review
"Comic and supremely witty, 36 Arguments for the Existence of God is both a satire of the academic world and a feast of philosophical and religious ideas."
-Alan Lightman, author of Einstein's Dreams
"You do not have to perpetrate an act of faith to confront the question of why there is something rather than nothing. It is faith itself that consists of nothing. Rebecca Goldstein, on the other hand, is quite something."
-Christopher Hitchens, author of God is Not Great
"Rebecca Newberger Goldstein does it all. She has written a hilarious novel about people's existential agonies, a page-turner about the intellectual mysteries that obsess them. The characters in 36 Arguments For the Existence of God explore the great moral issues of our day in a novel that is deeply moving and a joy to read."
-Jonathan Safran Foer, author of Everything is Illuminated
