Editorial Reviews

Elizabeth Ward

…a vivid new translation here by Stephen Mitchell…Bagram Ibatoulline's delicate watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations bring out its latent, violent weirdness very well.
—The Washington Post

From the Publisher

Beautifully illustrated…Mitchell’s words are rich and colloquial.
