Praise for Another Life: “Charming…Kallifatides has a novelist’s ear for anecdote, a dramatist’s for dialogue, and a poet’s for aphorism.” —Times Literary Supplement “In his elegiac, tender meditation on migrations, both geographic and psychic—from one country to another, from one language to another, from youth to old age, from the time of the present to memories of the past—Kallifatides offers his reader a personal politics of the human.” —Siri Hustvedt, author of The Blazing World
