Recenzii

A great writer of the past who speaks to the present in a voice brilliant, clear, honourable, blackly funny and prophetic
His satire still packs a punch, and the storytelling is brilliant.
Sheds remarkable light on the literature, culture and politics of the region...anyone coming fresh to the field will be captivated by the richness, variety, humour and pathos of a classic literature that, through a shared historical experience, transcends national and linguistic boundaries.
