Does he have any interesting narrative or aesthetic strategy that seems to convey a sense of non-existence? I'm greatly looking forward to reading these stories, and have found your review to be a helpful introduction.<br /><br />Found your blog, in fact, because I was doing some research on Krzhizhanovsky...thanks for the great review.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08579078279950747619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-121649472180371405.post-45971333192017902182010-02-02T16:07:11.131-06:002010-02-02T16:07:11.131-06:00I am not sure if I would read this, as I don't...I am not sure if I would read this, as I don't really like tangential writing and dream sequences, but other things that you mention do intrigue me about this book. I am going to try to pick this one up in person and see if it does anything for me, and if I can deal with the writing style. I have a feeling that if I can, I will be richly rewarded.
