Rezensionen

"Maybe Esther dwells between memory and oblivion, among the maybes, what-ifs, shoulds, and coulds of history...As she desperately tries to extract these last storytellers from their chosen oblivion, Petrowskaja assumes their forsaken role, bearing witness to events that she can only just imagine." Los Angeles Review of Books
