In taut yet voluptuous prose, with philosophic ferocity, BASEMENTS AND OTHER MUSEUMS marks the debut of a crucial new voice in contemporary fiction.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Melissa Pritchard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"In an age of conformity, this is a writer who boldly stands apart. Language is unfixed. Time is stretched like taffy. The sniper's finger drifts to the trigger as the tale is told. When history, society, and culture conspire toward collapse, all we have left is language-Vedran Husic knows this. He is the natural heir to Bruno Schulz, Danilo Kis, Gombrovicz: stylists and story-tellers battered by war.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Matthew Neill Null\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vedran Husic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1625579888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781625579881\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Lawrence Press, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Vedran Husic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069470896383,"sku":"9781625579881","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4b86e378-dd8f-4bbd-8927-35fb63900707.jpg?v=1685424894","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/basements-and-other-museums-vedran-husic-9781625579881","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
