Değerlendirmeler

"Aira's works are like slim cabinets of wonder, full of unlikely juxtapositions. His unpredictability is masterful." -- Rivka Galchen - Harpers
"Aira's cubist eye sees from every angle." -- Patti Smith - New York Times Book Review
"Cesar Aira is writing a gigantic, headlong, acrobatic fresco of modern life entirely made up of novelettes, novellas, novelitas. In other words, he is a great literary trickster, and also one of the most charming." -- Adam Thirlwell
"A writer's future hangs in the balance when he is tempted by an "unexpected Mephistopheles" in Aira's playful, self-reflexive latest...the story's driving question of choosing a meaningful course for one's life is timeless." -- Publishers Weekly
