Rezensionen

'Consistently brilliant. Every subtle, thought-provoking poetic moment in this novel fits on top of the last, creating a narrative as precarious and complex as a tower of building blocks. But this tower doesn't fall... One of the most exciting new writers around' Scarlett Thomas Independent on Sunday
