Anmeldelser
«Bears witness to Milosz'z lifetime of toil in the fields of memory, faith and art»
Bookforum
«[The series] 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.»
CJ Schüler, Independent on Sunday
«This [series] is a wonderful idea ... They are absurdist parables, by turns hilarious, unsettling and enigmatic.»
Nicholas Lezard, Guardian
«I urge you to go and read them.»
Adam Thirlwell, New Statesman
«This new series of Central European Classics is important well beyond simply providing 'good reads'.»
Stephen Vizinczey, Daily Telegraph
