Review:

This is the guy who's the best writer since Joyce.  So someone says. Another one of those weird 
Austrian genius writers like Musil. His first novel which I read seemed wistful, pared down, and 
cerebral.  I shall try his next Sleepwalkers.  I didn't feel startled by the unknown quantity, but another 
round will decide whether he was litrachur's muhammad ali.
