Minotaur
Description:
"I was totally enchanted by Minotaur, a book that transcends time. If Chekhov were to enter the room and ask where he should begin with contemporary literature, I would put Minotaur on his reading list, with the conviction that I would be introducing him to a kindred spirit."-Financial Times
"A novel about the expectations and compromises that humans create for themselves . . . very much in the manner of William Faulkner and Lawrence Durrell."-The New York Times
"After reading the last line, you feel like holding the book in your hands for a while, with love and anger, before putting it back on the shelf of timeless novels."-Corriere della Sera
"An uncommon and suggestive spy story, love story and much more, that charms the reader. Not to be missed."-L'Unit
