Trade Review
"The story in War & War is fascinating, but the writing surpasses even a story as inventive as this one…It is perhaps one of the most interesting technical accomplishments in any language…" -- The Hyper Literate
"eep in War and War may be a key to making sense of what happened on November 8th, 2016." -- Eileen Battersby - The Irish Times
"Krasznahorkai writes with a measured and bizarre elegance…exquisite explorations of consciousness, perception and memory." -- Matthew Spellberg - Harvard Book Review
"A seminal author of our time." -- David Auerbach - The Quarterly Conversation
"I love Krasznahorkai's books. His long, meandering sentences enchant me, and even if his universe appears gloomy, we always experience that transcendence which to Nietzsche represented metaphysical consolation." -- Imre Kertész
