Reviews

"Jorge Volpi's Season of Ash is the kind of novel that reminds me why I read novels in the first place, but it's also the kind that makes me wonder why I bother to write ... Volpi is a genius ... you have to buy this book, and ... he'll end up with the Nobel Prize in Literature if there is any justice in the world."—Okla Elliott, Inside Higher Ed

"Volpi's Season of Ash is a comprehensive attempt to dramatize the historical, scientific, and cultural forces at play in the least seventy years of the twentieth century."—Alan Davis, The Hudson Review

"Every generation or so a writer comes along who liberates his peers from oppressive expectations of what Latin American fiction is supposed to be. Jorge Volpi's In Search of Klingsorwoke everybody up!"—Francisco Goldman
