Prehistoric Times shows Chevillard at his best: off-kilter and linguistically dazzling, playful and acrobatic, quite mad but always entertaining-and all impossibly captured by Alyson Waters' fluid and masterful translation. -Brian Evenson, author of Windeye and Immobility Chevillard's book is a very profound contemplation on the nature of posterity; it may even be inferred that throughout Prehistoric Times Chevillard writes with an awareness that his own artistic production will be dwarfed within the great span of time against which all human beings must live out their brief existence. -Jordan Anderson, The Quarterly Conversation Praise for Chevillard's Palafox Mix together one pinch of surrealism, one pinch of 'situationalism,' stir in a large measure of poetry, quite a bit of talent and you will get a glittering novel of intelligence and humor . . . -Jean-Claude Lebrun, Révolution Eric Chevillard involves his reader in a powerful meditation on evil, foolishness, and inhumanity lurking in the heart of man. -Jean-Maurice de Montremy, Lire The current American new fabulism could learn a great deal from this very amusing book and its willingness to take real narrative risks...Beautifully translated by Wyatt Mason, Palafox is a must for anyone interested in anti-realist fiction. -Rain Taxi Eric Chevillard involves his reader in a powerful meditation on evil, foolishness, and inhumanity lurking in the heart of man. -Jean-Maurice de Montremy, Prehistoric Times shows Chevillard at his best: off-kilter and linguistically dazzling, playful and acrobatic, quite mad but always entertaining--and all impossibly captured by Alyson Waters' fluid and masterful translation. --Brian Evenson, author of Windeye and Immobility Chevillard's book is a very profound contemplation on the nature of posterity; it may even be inferred that throughout Prehistoric Times Chevillard writes with an awareness that his own artistic production will be dwarfed within the great span of time against which all human beings must live out their brief existence. --Jordan Anderson, The Quarterly Conversation Praise for Chevillard's Palafox: Mix together one pinch of surrealism, one pinch of 'situationalism,' stir in a large measure of poetry, quite a bit of talent and you will get a glittering novel of intelligence and humor . . . --Jean-Claude Lebrun, Révolution Eric Chevillard involves his reader in a powerful meditation on evil, foolishness, and inhumanity lurking in the heart of man. --Jean-Maurice de Montremy, Lire The current American new fabulism could learn a great deal from this very amusing book and its willingness to take real narrative risks...Beautifully translated by Wyatt Mason, Palafox is a must for anyone interested in anti-realist fiction. --Rain Taxi Eric Chevillard involves his reader in a powerful meditation on evil, foolishness, and inhumanity lurking in the heart of man. --Jean-Maurice de Montremy, Praise for Palafox : "The current American new fabulism could learn a great deal from this very amusing book and its willingness to take real narrative risks...Beautifully translated by Wyatt Mason, Palafox is a must for anyone interested in anti-realist fiction." -- Rain Taxi "Eric Chevillard involves his reader in a powerful meditation on evil, foolishness, and inhumanity lurking in the heart of man." --Jean-Maurice de Montremy "Imagine a comedy of manners, a supernatural tale, a sly commentary on science's quest for knowledge, a sad story about a creature that seems to possess characteristics common to marsupials, reptiles, and amphibians, not to mention insects and humans, and you have an inkling of what Eric Chevillard has done in his dark, disturbing, delightful, downright funny story of Palafox. Now mix into this brew some of Ronald Firbank's verbal fireworks, Italo Calvino's imaginative flights of exquisite writing, and Raymond Roussel's weird deadpan logic, and you get a little more of an inkling." --John Yau
