Praise for Can Xue

“There’s a new world master among us, and her name is Can Xue.”

—Robert Coover

“Can Xue has found not just a new direction but a new dimension to move in, a realm where conscious beings experience space, time, and each other unbound from the old rules.”

—Music & Literature

“Vertical Motion is incredible—short stories that I’d call ‘surrealist,’ but it’s a kind of clear-eyed surrealism, as if dreams had invaded the physical world.”

—John Darnielle, author of Wolf in White Van

“Funny, bizarre, improbable yet oddly moving, her stories in The Last Lover often arise from the mutual fantasies of East and West. They can sometimes bring Kafka, Ishiguro or Calvino to mind. In the end, though, Can Xue commands a truly unique voice.”

—The Independent

“One of the most raved-about works of translated fiction this year.”

—Flavorwire
