Beschreibung
A work of anticipation as much as a warning. The Possibility of an Island is also a reflection on the power of love. One quickly feels the urge to compare one's own reading to that of others. If there are books one wants to keep to oneself, this is certainly not the case with those of Houellebecq, as if they offer, each time, the possibility of confrontation," Franck Nouchi - Le Monde. "This novel profoundly shakes you. It has the visionary strength of an Aldous Huxley and the cruelty of an Evelyn Waugh. A raging bull in the porcelain shop of contemporary fiction," David Coward - Times Literary Supplement. "Michel Houellebecq creates great art as his writing is honest, precise, raw, and true. Beyond the theses on the end of religions or the dream of a New Man, it is primarily a book about fear," Volker Weidermann - Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung.
