"The world of advertising gets a richly comic comeuppance....[F]urther proof that this merry satirist wears the mantle of Gogol, Bely, and Bulgakov with more flair than almost any other contemporary novelist."
Kirkus, 12/01/2001
Review:"...Pelevin has a keen ear for the speech of both upper- and lower-class Russians.... Pelevin is just a stunningly talented writer, erudite on any number of topics, terrified of unoriginality, and densely packed but generally lucid whether describing a bad 'shroom trip or inventing a literally virtual politics. HOMO ZAPIENS is hard, weird, and often frustratingly oblique. But it is also a valuable, and very funny, glimpse into some of the deepest thinking on the most important issues facing a nation still searching for its twenty-first-century identity."
Matt Konrad, Ruminator Review, Fall 2002
