Rezensionen

'A novel of exceptional, astonishing strangeness, Solo confirms Rana Dasgupta as the most unexpected and original Indian writer of his generation.' Salman Rushdie

'This gloriously eccentric adventure through a century of Bulgarian history is so much fun to read you'll hardly realise how much you're learning...Weird, wonderful and warmly wise stuff.' Daily Mail

'[The novel's] breathtaking poignancy makes it worth every moment of concentration.' Scotsman

'"Solo" is a nuanced and virtuoso performance.' Scotland on Sunday

'[An] exhilarating visionary feat...When I finished it I wanted to go back to the beginning and read it all over again.' Sunday Business Post

'In this deliriously sad, bewitching novel, Dasgupta updates the magic realism of the subcontinent, and brings it fully formed into a new century.' Metro

'With delicately judged poignancy, Rana Dasgupta captures the past's fading from the mind.' TLS
