No retelling of Kassandra and the Wolf can explain its charm, or its riddles. [It] is one of those rare creations that come alive mysteriously, without any antecedents. The book is original, terrifying, complete. It invents its own history, eases in and out of nightmare as it mingles dream and fact. Kassandra and the Wolf is a short, muscular novel with an absolute sense of craft. The language throughout is merciless and crisp. [A] stunning achievement: a lovely, sinister book.New York Times
