Reviews
Funny and frighteningLondon Review of Books
Incandescent . . . One of those novels that, even in translation, make you feel that not one word could have been written differently . . . It has too many achievements to list, but the way it keeps faith in love and art even in moments of unspeakable humiliation and cruelty must be the greatestNew York Times

I read it as a book about how to go on living when your spirit is brokenViv Groskop, Guardian
