Recensione:

"I am delighted to salute, from Mexico, the universal English voice of Julian Barnes, as he breaks barriers of conventional time and genre, [and] creates characters from ideas and language."
--Carlos Fuentes

"Barnes writes with such intelligence and fluency [that] we are made to understand something of the dynamic between life and art, fact and fiction."
--New York Times
