What people are saying
A 200-page quarterly of fiction, poetry, essays, and visual art by emerging and established authors since 1959. Whiting Literary Magazine Prize winner.
"The path of least resistance into Saer’s text may well be to follow the through-line which is the novel’s most explicit focus..." MR's @dzemhiks looks at a new translation of Juan José Saer's The Regal Lemon Tree from @open_letter for #MassReviews: https://t.co/jDgwXOAwzb https://t.co/FECCGhPkFO
Praise for this book
"A cerebral explorer of the problems of narrative in the wake of Joyce and Woolf, of Borges, of Rulfo and Arlt, Saer is also a stunning poet of place."--The Nation
"Juan José Saer must be added to the list of the best South American writers."--Le Monde
"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
"The most striking element of Saer's writing is his prose, at once dynamic and poetic. . . . It is brilliant."--Harvard Review
"Brilliant. . . . Saer's The Sixty-Five Years of Washington captures the wildness of human experience in all its variety."--New York Times
"What Saer presents marvelously is the experience of reality, and the characters' attempts to write their own narratives within its excess."--Bookforum
