Review
[A] philosophical tour de fource ... which aptly showcases Helle's deadpan humour. This is a linguistically daring portrait of an overwhelmed mind * Financial Times * Fragmentary prose is welded by a hypnotic voice ... the unnamed narrator of Heinz Helle's debut describes his life in New York with remorseless logic * Guardian * Beckettian ... excellent ... funny * Independent * Darkly humorous ... Helle shows us the world with a rare clear-sightedness * Scotland on Sunday * Superabundance is a work of deadpan brilliance and unflinching honesty, chasing down lines of thought normally lost in the cacophony of our daily lives. I had always assumed I was fully conscious until I read this -- Alex Christofi, author of 'Glass' A nearly flawless, driving history of total alienation * Die Zeit * So modern, so cool, so strange -- Hubert Winkels
