By "concentrating on the ways in which life and hope emerged through and despite that violence, Mukasonga makes a critically important contribution to the literature of Rwanda and of humanity alike," – @hansnf for @PopMatters https://t.co/5J7gRjhSuc

We're so grateful for this insightful NY Times review of GOOD WILL COME FROM THE SEA by Christos Ikonomou, "Greece’s most original and perceptive chronicler of his country’s fears and yearnings," and "seamlessly translated by Karen Emmerich." https://t.co/p3GmELf94B https://t.co/CaIDvNLH07

"The sympathy of Ikonomou's characterization—the humanity he captures on the page—made me keep reading," writes Francine Prose of Christos Ikonomou's "Something Will Happen, You'll See" and "Good Will Come from the Sea" (available today!) in a new review for Harper's April issue.

"In @Mukasonga's village, the women were in charge of the fire. They stoked it, kept it going all night, every night. In her work — six searing books and counting — she has become the keeper of the flame." – @parul_sehgal https://t.co/y8mD1RNA4d #IWD2019 https://t.co/sdFrZOZ1rM
