Recenzii

Praise for William T. Vollmann 

"Resembles War and Peace not merely in its scope, but in its perception of history as a determining force that individual lives merely illustrate . . . Aspires to the highest possible potential of literature."
- Melvin Jules Bukiet, Los Angeles Times

"Profound . . . Vollmann asks us to put aside what we think we know of history and immerse ourselves in it once again."
 - John Freeman, The Boston Globe

"You don’t go to Vollmann for structure or old-fashioned storytelling; you go to Vollmann for the sentences, the mood, the experience. You go to Vollmann for the same reason certain people chase storms."

 - Tom Bissell, The New Republic
