Reviews

This book takes a remarkable step in the direction of its own ideals. The reader discovers new ways of thinking about literature and its possibilities, the brushes of meaning that open up when multiple texts or realities enter into contact, just as the little body of a bee skims against the pollen of a stamen before coming to rest with languor upon the pistil of a different flower. * Berfrois *
