Andrew Krivak's "The Sojourn" is a story that was already missed before it ended. In short but well-written pages Krivak has penned a remarkable first novel. It is short but, for this reviewer at least, it has the qualities of an epic journey from a young man's heady rebellion to grim conformity and on to redemptive rebirth and renewal. “The Sojourn is a fiercely wrought novel, populated by characters who lead harsh, even brutal lives, which Krivak renders with impressive restraint, devoid of embellishment or sentimentality. And yet—almost despite such a stoic prose style—his sentences accrue and swell and ultimately break over a reader like water: they are that supple and bracing and shining.”.
