Tango Of Death

Description: “Yuri Vynnychuk’s novel Tango of Death is a literary masterpiece about the magic of pre-war Lviv." Dariusz Nowacki in Gazeta Wyborcza (Poland) “In his novel a stormy plot is interwoven with historical enlightenment, sarcastic humor and deep tragedy. …[T]his spectacular artistic work is undoubtedly worthy of the highest recognition.” Von Ulrich M. Schmid in Neue Zürcher Zeitung (Switzerland) “Experienced readers know that books that capture your imagination from the very first page are rare. Even the most legendary authors succeed in doing this in only a handful of instances. Yuri Vynnychuk with his novel undoubtedly belongs to this elite circle. …[T]his masterpiece reads like a grand parable.” Joachim Mols from www.bestreaders.de (Germany) “Yuri Vynnychuk is one of the most popular writers of Ukraine. His works are hotly debated and awarded many prizes. It's great that the cult author of Lviv can now cast a spell over German-speaking readers as well.” Yuri Andrukhovych (Ukraine) “…a demanding, exciting and entertaining to read novel despite a tragic story told over lengthy spans of time.” Volker Breidecker in Süddeutsche Zeitung (Germany) “…a cleverly composed novel in which Vynnychuk skillfully alternates time and perspectives and tells a moving story about friendship and courage in the face of the utmost brutality.” Karoline Thaler in ORF Kultur (Austria) “…a rich, explosive novel.” Jutta Lindekugel in titel-kulturmagazin.net (Germany)
