Recenzii

Brilliant, masterly, always original
Towering and glorious: a tale of social, familial and marital breakdown . . . and the End of the World. The funniest literary novel I have ever read
An ambitious platter of intellection and emotion. Its observations are crisp; its intimations of doom resonate; its jokes are funny. Foer's best and most caustic novel, filled with so much pain and regret that your heart sometimes struggles to hold it all. Has more teeming life in it than several hundred well-meaning and well-reviewed books of midlist fiction put together
Foer writes like a dream. . . big-hearted, courageous and jaw-droppingly clever
A darkly hilarious mile-a-minute novel
Foer has stretched and expanded the possibilities of the novel without losing either intellectual integrity or emotional honesty.Here I Amis not just bold, it is brave... It will be remembered when all the dinner party novels are long forgotten
Highly enjoyable and extremely funny... Foer is an absolute master of his fictional universe
Emotional depth and dramatic maturity... UnarguablyFoer's most substantial and impressive work yet
Lays bare the interior of a marriage with such intelligence and deep feeling and pitiless clarity, it's impossible to read it and not re-examine your own family.
A brilliantly acrobatic imagination
Provocative . . . very, very funny. Dialogue pings, as animated and inventive as an Aaron Sorkin script.
Terrific, truthful, extremely funny and heartbreaking.
A rich, beautifully written, ambitious and grandly moving novel, which looks both at the world at large and at the deepest concerns of individual lives.
Astonishing. So sad and so funny and so wry. The book thatThe Correctionsought to have been
