Antoine Volodine is the primary pseudonym of a French writer of Slavic origins, born in 1950. Volodine has published nineteen books under this name, including Minor Angels and Naming the Jungle, both of which are available in English translation. His other names and books include Lutz Bassmann (We Monks and Soldiers) and Manuela Draeger (In the Time of the Blue Ball).
His talent surfaces time and again in luxurious, hypnotic ways... [Volodine] has written the type of open-ended work that will capture the attention of lovers of lit crit as fiction. Publishers Weekly Clever and incisive. New York Times Book Review His quirky and eccentric narrative achieves quite staggering and electric effects... Dazzling in its epic proportions and imaginative scope. The Nation Magazine Very rewarding: there's pleasure in the texts themselves, and there's a sense of a much larger whole, which, with more effort, might slowly be grasped. Complete Review 8/13/14
