A Best Book of 2018 at Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, and the New Statesman
Fox is the story of literary footnotes and minor charactersunnoticed people propelled into timelessness through the biographies and novels of others. With Ugresics characteristic wit, Fox takes us from Russia to Japan, through Balkan minefields and American road trips, and from the 1920s to the present, as it explores the power of storytelling and literary invention, betrayal, and the randomness of human lives.
