RaveThe San Francisco ChronicleA mischievous fairy tale about transformation, emotion and ambiguity. These are bracing remedies for a world that too often forces us toward stasis, indifference and binaries ... As ever, Tokarczuk’s prose — and Antonia Lloyd-Jones’ glorious translation thereof from the Polish — will knock the wind out of you ... Resonant.

RaveThe San Francisco ChronicleDelivers plenty of...trademark dream logic while also making full use of the longer form to simmer characters, relationships and setting to the point of profound tenderness ... An intriguing cast of characters who each nurse their own tangles of kinship and loss ... A refreshing celebration of the special alchemies that animate human connection of all kinds.
