Rezensionen

Tawada is an artist out on the tip of the spear. She isn't courting a readership, curating her image, coaxing popularity like some; she is pushing her art forward, and we as readers are welcome along for the ride if we can keep up. It's startling, breathtaking prose, literature at its purest. What to compare it to? Nothing. It is simply Tawadaesque... Iain Maloney The Japan Times
