Reviews

A tour de force. Hemon has given us a story of love and war like no otherKamila Shamsie, author of Home Fire
'Alexsandar Hemon's new novel is immense. ... It contains almost as much as its title promises. By turns lyrical and sardonic, it is as emotionally compelling as it is clever. I'll be surprised if I enjoy a novel more this year.'Guardian
A magnificent, ambitious masterpieceFinancial Times
A twisting, turning epic rooted in love in all its forms; an odyssey of statelessness; a haunted museum of history ranging from Sarajevo to Shanghai and Jerusalem . . . This life-stuffed novel is Aleksandar Hemon’s masterpieceDavid Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas
