Reviews

The Dante of the Twentieth Century
*W. H. Auden*

This compelling, prophetic novel anticipates the insanity of modern bureaucracy and the coming of totalitarianism
*The Daily Telegraph*

It is the fate and perhaps the greatness of that work that it offers everything and confirms nothing
*Albert Camus*

It was Kafka who made me understand that one can write differently
*Gabriel García Márquez*
