Praise for this book

"Ugresic never commits a sloppy thought or a turgid sentence. Under her gaze, the tiredest topics of the "tired" continent (migration, multiculturalism, "new Europe") spring to life."--The Independent (UK)

"Dubravka Ugresic is the philosopher of evil and exile, and the story-teller of many shattered lives the wars in the former Yugoslavia produced."--Charles Simic
