About this product

Product Information

By the Koscielski Prize-winning author of Dream and Stones , In Red is the gripping cautionary tale in which real and unreal combine explosively, making us question the nature of the work itself. Set in an imaginary fourth partition of Poland, In Red retraces the turbulent history of the Twentieth Century in a labyrinth of greed, inheritance, and entropy, enacting--word by tremulous word--the claustrophobia of a small town from which there seems to be no escape. Never have Tulli's trademark precision of language and her crystalline storytelling been put to such brilliant use.

Reviews
"Dreams and Stones, by the Polish writer Magdalena Tulli, is a postmodernist masterpiece of lyrical prose that defies generic definition and is rife with paradox and metaphor." —Kirsten Lodge, Slavic and East European Journal "A beautifully flowing translation. Johnston aptly captures the dreamy as well as the stark quality of the original." —Danuta Borchardt "Powerful imagery caught in a sinewy, architectural, elegiac prose. An inner-outer dance of cityscape with the taut emotion, terror & psyche of the 'human.' Where are we? What magical zone of dream and stone? We are inhabitants of the wild, brilliant imagination of Magdalena Tulli. This book is a great pleasure to read: deeply provocative, intuitive, haunting. 'I hunt among stones' was Charles Olson's probing line, a mission manifested here with full beauty & finesse. And rendered from Polish to English in an inspired translation by Bill Johnston." —Anne Waldman "A startling, beautiful, powerful achievement." —W. S. Merwin, "Dreams and Stones, by the Polish writer Magdalena Tulli, is a postmodernist masterpiece of lyrical prose that defies generic definition and is rife with paradox and metaphor." --Kirsten Lodge, Slavic and East European Journal "A beautifully flowing translation.

Merwin, Like all great works of art, Tulli¢s books create something new, something that doesn¢t correspond to what the reader has been conditioned to expect. -Rain Taxi As Tulli demonstrated with a quick swish of the knives, story can keep peeling off from itself and regenerating, like a snake with ever renewable skin. -Eleni Sikelianos Tulli strings together stories with compelling logic . . . Her evocation of a town where everything beautiful is tainted with death never feels far removed from reality. -The New Yorker There is much to treasure. Tulli plays with the line between unexpected and quirky very well. . . . You can't help but to want to return again and again. -NPR Enchanting. . . . Bill Johnston's translation is simply gorgeous. -The Coffin Factory Powerful imagery caught in a sinewy, architectural, elegiac prose.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
