The Atlantic - James Fallows
"I am on Riemen's side....I find that his case for considering today's developments 'fascist' is, in fact, useful in thinking about responses."
Damon Linker
"Riemen’s dire warnings cannot help appearing prescient. American readers who are rightly worried about similarly distressing developments in the United States will feel fortified by the publication of To Fight Against This Age…establishes Riemen as an erudite, well-meaning and inspiring ally in the struggle to combat anti-liberal political trends."
Ingrid Rowland
"From Thomas Mann’s warning, ‘If ever Fascism should come to America, it will come in the name of freedom,’ to an elderly Czech poet’s cautious optimism about the future of Europe, these essays make a passionate case for values that are not so much ancient as ageless."
Anne Applebaum
"This is a book for people who want the West to regain its moral high ground, and who want to think hard about how to help achieve that."
Sean Wilentz
"Rob Riemen is one of the great modern champions of the Enlightenment and the best of its legacy."
Amos Oz
"This is a bold, courageous, original, and provocative meditation. It challenges many trendy diagnoses of the present crisis of western civilization by offering some very surprising and unexpected perspectives."
