translated from the Hungarian by John Batki

My first time

reading Krasznahorkai

and it felt like

mixing Leonor Fini's

fever dream novel

Rogomelec

with Lemony Snicket's

over-the-top

paranoia and anxiety.

A whirlwind of a

chase scene,

complete with woozy

illustrations

from Max Neumann

and QR codes

with music by

Szilveszter Miklós

to soundtrack

the high-paced

odyssey.

It's a trip.

One I'm glad I took.
