Fox

Fox | Dubravka Ugresic

7 posts | 3 read | 5 to read

Fox is the story of literary footnotes and "minor" characters--unnoticed people propelled into timelessness through the biographies and novels of others. With Ugresic's characteristic wit, Fox takes us from Russia to Japan, through Balkan minefields and American road trips, and from the 1920s to the present, as it explores the power of storytelling and literary invention, betrayal, and the randomness of human lives.

Fox | Dubravka Ugresic

I saw this one at ALA this summer, and the cover was calling to me. Plus, I love foxes (except for the really loud carryings-on Of mating season.) I don‘t think I‘ve ever read anything by a Croatian author before.

🤷🏻‍♂️ I don‘t think this one was for me.

CouronneDhiver This is on my TBR... what didn‘t you like about it? (Just curious) 5y

ssravp @CouronneDhiver I‘m not sure to be honest. It just didn‘t hold my interest. It felt disjointed to me. 5y

Fox | Dubravka Ugresic

“A City is a text. Every text survives by repeating stereotypes and undoing them, through trivialities and the dodging of trivialities. By penning a brief footnote to this city, I am merely going down the well-trodden path of words that have been uttered so many times before. It is not me, of course, that matters, it‘s the footnote. The footnote is a form of survival.”

Well, at least there is good tea...That‘s more than I can say for a lot of places. ❤️☕️
