"""Certainly the strangest and arguably one of the most accomplished contemporary writers of fiction in French, Antoine Volodine has created a vast and perplexing universe of bad dreams in several dozen works under a variety of pseudonyms over the past forty years. Some kind of disaster has occurred, the revolution has long since turned into a nightmare, yet people resist as best they can—by telling stories to each other, which are stories about each other. Mevlido’s Dreams provides a new pathway into Volodine’s labyrinth, which for all the horrors it recounts is always cast in stylishly crafted prose."" —David Bellos, Princeton University  "
