Status Updates From Zaslepljenost: Levo krilo

It’s kinda like if Flights was actually good

Finally the writer reveals the source of the title of this literary trilogy, in a scene of intensely imagined genius. Spellbinding…..

“Maybe in the heart of this book there is nothing other than howling, yellow, blinding apocalyptic howling….”

“The guy fights like three or four at once”
Oh no. Sorry that isn’t English. It’s been translated into American. Hugely disappointing.

“I do not think you will find many books with as an intense and vivid vision as Cărtărescu gives us in this book - one of the major works of the late 20th century” according to the modern novel.org
I’m not going to argue. Just a shame that vol 2&3 of the trilogy are not available in English yet ☹️
