Recenzii

"Terribly poignant" Times Literary Supplement "Novel, short story, fable? - it doesn't matter. This short book has a sadness that breaks your heart and a visual beauty shot through with the horror of war. Every word, every tear, every gesture is significant" Nouvel Observateur "Dense, provocative and, most of all revelatory" -- Claire Allfree Metro "A hallucinatory, tragic cry of despair" Le Monde "With this novel Rahimi picks up a shard of broken glass and sees the whole truth of his devastated country" Der Spiegel

EUROPEAN PRAISE FOR "EARTH AND ASHES" "With this novel Rahimi picks up a shard of broken glass and sees the whole truth of his devastated country."--"Der Spiegel" (Germany) "Evokes with intimacy and lyricism the tragedy of a country."--"Liberation" (France) "A literary creation of a kind not seen for years."--"L'Express" (France) "The history of Yassin and his grandfather does for our time what Antigone did for the Greeks. . . . Extraordinary."--"La Marseillaise" (France) "A hallucinatory, tragic cry of despair."--"Le Monde" (France)

Descriere

When the Soviet army arrives in Afghanistan, the elderly Dastaguir witnesses the destruction of his village. Haunting in its spareness, "Earth and Ashes" is a tale of devastating loss, but also of human perseverance in the face of madness and war.
