This is one of the glories of [his] prose."--Jonathan Rosen, New York Times Book Review "A work of powerful, and eccentric, originality."--Robert Alter, Los Angeles Times "An epic novel ... in a lively and accessible translation by Barbara Harshav. She uncannily captures the highly idiosyncratic voice and lilt, the full measure of provincialism and sophistication, of the master.... For this miracle of a translation ... we can only be grateful."--Tova Reich, Washington Post "Princeton University Press has made Agnon's most celebrated work available for ordinary readers ... with the first English translation of Agnon's ... mega-novel."--Susan Miron, Philadelphia Inquirer "Barbara Harshav's translation--the first ever in English--is thoroughly smooth and enjoyable. She succeeds in preserving Agnon's unique style, Voltaire-like witticism, and literary beauty."--Alexander Zvielli, Jerusalem Post
