- Information
Description
Igor Klekh emerges as a writer from the crossroads of Europe--Western Ukraine--influenced by the great Russian literary tradition as well as the languages and dialects of both East-Central Europe and his native country.
A Land the Size of Binoculars collects his breakthrough 1993 novella Kallimakh's Wake, five short pieces, and two more recent novellas. Throughout, Klekh studies landscapes as intimate as the terrain between fathers and sons and as broad as the wild, mysterious Carpathian Mountains.
His work has been compared to that of Borges, Eco, and the magical realists, and celebrated for its synthesis of numerous literary traditions, its use of esoteric knowledge, and its breathtaking prose.
