PRAISE FOR

JUAN JOSÉ SAER

“Brilliant. . . . With meticulous prose, rendered by Dolph’s translation into propulsive English, Saer’s The Sixty-Five Years of Washington captures the wildness of human experience in all its variety.”

—New York Times

“While some of Saer’s sentences are long enough to rival Proust’s, they are infused with a palpitating sensuality, their breathing equally crafted.”

—The Nation

“To say that Juan José Saer is the best Argentinian writer of today is to undervalue his work. It would be better to say that Saer is one of the best writers of today in any language.”

—Ricardo Piglia

“Juan José Saer must be added to the list of the best South American writers.”

—Le Monde

“The author’s preoccupations are reminiscent of his fellow Argentinians Borges and Cortázar, but his vision is fresh and unique.”

—The Independent (London)
