"The greatest novel written in our time, and one of the great books of the century." --Susan Sontag "A vast, astonishing, reverberant novel . . . It is a comprehensive and all-comprehending book about politics, sex, art, history, psychology, mortality, and memory." --Richard Dyer, The Boston Globe "A huge philosophically complex, sensuously textured novel." --Eva Hoffman, The New York Times Book Review "A magnum opus . . . [Nádas] articulates erotic experience with surpassing precision and grace. . . . There is great beauty to the writing." --Susan Miron, The Wall Street Journal "There is a wealth of accomplishment in A Book of Memories. It is an epic and immensely fertile exploration of contemporary history and sensibility." --Richard Eder, Los Angeles Times "A superb achievement, by a world-class writer." --Susan Ruben Suleiman, The Village Voice "A Book of Memories will endure as a great moral expression of the European crucible of public and private souls, genuinely worthy of Proust, Henry James, Musil, and Mann as an authoritative testimony to the intellectual and emotional lives of an epoch." --The Seattle Times
