. I was also dazzled by Rachel Cusk.s Transit. Cusk has perfected the brilliant, dark humour possible with a narrator apparently oblivious to the comedy of the scenes she.s describing. . Lara Feigel, Observer, Book of the Year
. An extraordinary piece of writing . stunningly bold, original and humane. . Joanna Kavenna, Daily Telegraph
. Her writing, for all its laconic, pared-back grace, is rich in detail. Cusk is now working on a level that makes it very surprising she has not yet won a major literary prize. Her technical originality is equalled by the compelling nature of her subject matter, and Transit is a very fine novel indeed. . Helen Dunmore, Observer
. In her effort to expose the illusions of both fiction and life, [Rachel Cusk] may have discovered the most genuine way to write a novel today. . Atlantic
. Transfixing.There.s a constant sense of Ms. Cusk.s mind whirling, as if she were forever, in the background, performing an internal disk check. Transit is fat with substance, as August Wilson once said he wanted his plays to be. There.s a lot of humor in its talk. . Dwight Garner, New York Times
