PRAISE FOR

GEORGI GOSPODINOV

“Gospodinov’s first novel blends the personal and the philosophical. . . . The resulting mixture is both earthy and intellectual.”

—Guardian

“With The Physics of Sorrow Gospodinov launches . . . himself into the premier league of European authors. . . . [Gospodinov] rises above the lowlands of novelistic commercialism and convention, saving not only himself, but literature as well—and with it, the entire world.”

—New Journal of Zurich

“Georgi Gospodinov wants to blow your mind. . . . The formal playfulness suggests Kundera with A.D.D.”

—Village Voice

“This book is madness. It is extraordinary and restless, reflective, terribly funny, jarring, as philosophical as it is poetic, microscopic and grandiose. In short: fantastic.”

—Berliner Zeitung

“Gospodinov’s novel, with its metafictional games, playful narrative fragmentation, and obligatory epigraph from Foucault, belongs more to the cosmopolitan postmodern aesthetic of Italo Calvino than its native locale.”

—Believer
