Rezension zu „Seconds Out “
"This is subtle, complex book. At its heart is the fight itself or more precisely the fall of the champion whose essence is analysed in a virtuoso, slow-motion cut up into moments that crystallize an epoch. Finally, a novel that is not a film-script disguised as a novel from which a script is to be taken. A new generation of Argentinian writers, Martin Kohan and Rodrigo Fresan in the forefront, are showing that they are the worthy successors of Borges, Sabato and Bioy Casares' - Le Devoir"
