Recenzii

The simplicity and depth of this crystal clear prose fill me with great admiration


Moving, raw and elegant. A book that will grow in you for years to come
Gospodinov gives a lucid account of his father's last days and his own lasting grief, enlivened with memories and anecdotes from decades past . . . A moving exploration of "the botany of sorrow"
Tender, funny, unforgettable. A book so full of love for its place and people. One for all of us who've lost the elder who tended the land and stories we grew up on
Georgi Gospodinov is one of the most interesting and innovative writers of this century
Gospodinov is a writer of great warmth as well as skill . . . He can draw out fully dimensional characters from the broken details of their fractured memories
All Gospodinov's work is time-bound and time-free, haunted by time and fleeing from it . . . This is inevitably a sad book in places, yet it is lit with remembered warmth, happiness, laughter, and a kind of lightness characteristic of its writer
A beautiful testimony of a loving son towards his father, who is vividly depicted as a tall, good-humoured gardener, full of stories and exaggerations . . . With gentle wit, insight and love, Georgi Gospodinov has written a tender filial tribute with universal resonances
A tender, lyrical meditation on a father's death and a son's grief
Epigrammatic and intimate . . . A consolation rather than a provocation, and occasionally darkly funny . . . It might have you mulling your own pithy epitaph
An exquisitely tender novel . . . Death and the Gardener is pleasurably absurdist yet elegiac
This light, slight, melancholic little book is concerned with the transformation of one thing into another: a father's life into the stories that can never replace him
Gospodinov writes with a glorious lack of restraint, the prose taking on a poetic quality in places . . . Unruly, uncommon and quite magically alive
Profoundly moving . . . more a celebration of life than a chronicle of sorrow . . . Like Seamus Heaney, Mr. Gospodinov digs with his pen. What sprouts up is a portrait of devotion, love and respect, of time passing and roles reversing
To the select canon of worthwhile books about fathers, Gospodinov has created a vital and valuable addition
Gospodinov's books stand somewhere between metafiction, autofiction, essay and thought experiment
A wonderful elegy for his father, on par with the one Mallarmé dedicated to his son
A profound and surprising reflection on the death of his father
Elegies are the genre of our time. In Death and the Gardener, Georgi Gospodinov has written a powerfully moving elegy for his father that is, at the same time, an assertion of the writer's privilege to have the last word
One of the most beautiful books ever published about the death of a loved one
A lesson about death conveyed with the striking simplicity of the heart's guidance
Georgi Gospodinov, the magnificent Bulgarian writer, has long managed to write great stories contemplating the world from a micro-perspective . . . Now through a garden, which is a kind of biography of the father
With his poetic verve and melancholic irony, Georgi Gospodinov is one of the most original voices in European literature . . . Death and the Gardener, is a memoir, confession and snapshot in one - and his most personal novel to date
