Recenzii
Stunning ... An enlightening, multifaceted and thoroughly engrossing look at what blackness means and has meant through the centuries
In its breadth, beauty and candour, this is a beguiling collection. And if, after reading it you leave with more questions than you started - which might be a complaint in a lesser book - then I suspect it has achieved its aim
A remarkable collection of essays on representation, race, identity and history. Edugyan must now be counted as one of the finest essayists of her generation, as well as one of the best novelists
Praise for Esi Edugyan: Wondrous ... gripping ... vivid and captivating
Magnificent and strikingly visual prose
Exquisite

A towering achievement . . . Edugyan is one of our sharpest and deepest writers

Poignant and political, Edugyan enjoys taking her readers where they are least expecting to go . . . shines a light on the present as well as the past.
A pacey yet thoughtful exploration of freedom, and our moral compulsion to act
A remarkable collection of essays on representation, race, identity and history. Not surprisingly, Out of the Sun is rich in stories, memory and the warmth of human experience ... gripping ... There are insights, ironies and nuances on every page: Edugyan must now be counted as one of the finest essayists of her generation, as well as one of the best novelists
