"Ricci's masterstroke to date. This novel does so well, on so many levels, that it's hard to know where to begin tallying up the riches.... Each sentence, each word, feels exactly right.... He triumphs utterly here in rare achievement." Toronto Star

"Ricci writes beautifully, sentence by sentence." National Post

"The Origin of Species is an achingly honest look at how our life choices get stacked up to form the picture of who we are whether we like it or not. Ricci's dry, sardonic prose is sharp, with the cadence of natural thought that tumbles forward without getting lost." The Boston Globe
