After the Sun

Paperback154 pagina’sEngelsInternationale bron

How does it feel to be a native of the digital era? What effect does late capitalism have upon our intimate lives? A lot of people instinctively sense that time and space feel different these days, but few people seem able to capture that feeling in prose. Jonas Eika manages it. After the Sun is an inventive and exciting book - a true original

- Zadie Smith

Eika's prose flexes a light-footed, vigilant, and unpredictable animalism: it's practically pantheresque. After the Sun is an electrifying, utterly original read

- Claire-Louise Bennett

Eika says he 'started writing this book wanting to be surprised by it' and it delivers: this is a book that is hard to get out of your head, like an extravagant dream

- The Guardian

Relentlessly thrilling. The sentences in these stories stretch past the limits of the ordinary to the luridly extraordinary, and some moments feel as if they are breaking through to the sublime

- New York Times Book Review

After the Sun confronts modernity and alienation in hypnotic prose... These stories are compelling, haunted, even radiant

- TLS
