Recenzii
“. . . an acutely observed account — compelling despite its grimness — of the lives of its semi-nomadic subjects." —Times Literary Supplement
"All This Belongs to Me invites us into this singular universe created by Hůlová, Mongolian but also abstract and timeless, filled with memorable female characters that resonate with the readers." —World Literature Today
