Relazione

From the reviews of The Kraus Project:
'Franzen is still saying something important. Also Kraus can be a joy ... you can understand why Franzen likes him, and he sees a dearth of such elegance today' Sunday Times
'The Kraus Project is tremendously readable and is refreshingly sceptical of the cult of digital cool. Franzen's prose has an appealing briskness and polemical force, quite different in style from the high burnish of his long, deliberative, multi-layered literary novels ... as an exercise in controlled rage and as a celebration of and introduction to Karl Kraus it works just so' Financial Times
