'Anyone interested in the power of fiction to move us and extend our sense of life should get hold of this book'
Spectator
'The Master of Petersburg is Dostoevsky, and the events described are both the background to and the subject of The Devils. In 1869 he returned secretly to Petersburg just as the police were rounding up the Nechaev gang, a student anarchist movement notorious for having murdered one of its own members... Now Coetzee has insinuated himself into the cracks between the known facts and the fiction, to produce a stunning account of the relation of writers to events. He has also written a moving account of a father's painful adjustment to the death of his son... A harsh, eloquent critique of the human condition. It is also a subtle, powerful, superbly written personal testament. The bleakness of vision is tempered only by the certainty that life can be material for art. This is art. The case is proven'
Sunday Times
'An intense and deep book'
Guardian
'A tour de force... Utterly engrossing, this is a book to cherish'
