    Attila by Aliocha Coll has gone back into print today and for the first time it’s been translated into English. I enjoy difficult thought provoking literature but so far this novel is about as comprehensible and coherent as Finnegans Wake. credit to the translator because translating this labyrinth into English couldn’t have been an easy task.

    Also apologies, the excerpt is from a different book also named Attila that also released today written by the author’s friend that is basically a memoir about his friend’s slow descent into madness and depression writing his final novel before his suicide. The publisher didn’t do a very good job clarifying they are two separate novels especially considering the book art is nearly the same.

    Edit: for some reason it didn’t let me post the link the first time
