"It's a joy to read Pelevin's phantasmagoria so brilliantly translated by Andrew Bromfield, a crowning achievement of the pair's longtime association. Complex ideas are rendered simply and organically, never disturbing the narrative flow. Brom­field's English text is fleet and magical."

Liesl Schillinger, New York Times, 09/26/2008
