Reviews

Modiano's existential noir novel employs a moody, atmospheric prose (smoothly translated by Jordan Stump) to create a strange love story that somehow manages to be both suspenseful and contemplative. -New York Times Book Review New York Times Book Review The character development is skillful, and the translator provides not only an excellent translation but a good introduction to Modiano. -Library Journal Library Journal [Out of the Dark] introduces to American readers one of the most prolific and critically esteemed French novelists of the last thirty years... A whiff of Jeanne Moreau's corrupted glamour in Truffaut's Jules and Jim hangs over this affecting story of loss. -Kirkus Reviews Kirkus Reviews Translated smoothly by Stump, the narrative offers an accessible introduction to Modiano's work. -Publishers Weekly Publishers Weekly
