Meer over het boek

'Each story continues Calvino's lifelong campaign to add more territory to the empire of the imagination; each discloses marvels in regions that we presumed exhausted' Time 'In all three stories, intellectual keenness accompanies intense receptiveness to sensuous nuance' Sunday Times
