»What fantastic material, what an exquisite blend of worldly and

intellectual matters on a major historical scale as well as a small personal one!

Kenah Cusanit throws herself into the mix with wit and a taste for punchlines.«

Friedtjof Küchemann, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

»For a long time, there hasn’t been such

an accessible story about a city in literature

as in Kenah Cusanit’s novel.« Paul Jandl, NZZ

»It's the world history as a farce and a babble of voices that

Babel unfolds, but the sardonic intelligence of Kenah Cusanit

illustrates the sublime traits behind it.«

Ijoma Mangold, Die Zeit

»A book that towers over everything

else in contemporary German-language

literature this spring.« Denis Scheck, ARD Druckfrisch

»Babel is a fascinatingly complex book

impressive for its encyclopaedic breadth, technical

depth and intellectual density.« Roberta De Righi, AZ
