Elation and pain, anxiety and exuberance, and the uneven beat of living are all caught in language as silky and fluid as music."--Roxana Robinson "Like Joyce or William Gass or John Edgar Wideman, Anne Landsman fashions a sensual web of memory and desire, rescuing a world at the brink of extinction through the power of her lyricism."--Stewart O'Nan "An elegy for a lost father and a beloved world on the point of disappearing. Rarely in South African writing will we encounter language of such fire and passion."--J. M.
