In the mountain of books about the war there cannot be another so brief and yet so complete, so unguarded and yet so subtle, so movingly human as this. -- Arthur Miller * New York Times * [In Hiding] bears [Fraser's] trademark style, a kind of literary anthropology that tells sweeping stories with a pointillist logic ... Scrupulous about structure and detail, his tales are unfailingly readable-from his depiction of a Spanish village in Tajos to his oral history of the civil war, The Blood of Spain. -- Jonathan Blitzer * Bookforum * A truly fascinating account. * Glasgow Herald *
