»›augohrfeinschliff‹ ist schon vonnöten, wenn man José Olivers Gedichte goutieren will. Sie sind ›sichtbarer klang‹, von einem ›mundaug‹ erfasst, zu Papier gebracht. Unserer medienverseuchten Welt hält José Oliver ›sein‹ Rezept entgegen: Der Wortkombination ›aus bildern‹ gewinnt er ein neues Verb ab – ›ausbildern‹, will sagen das Gehirn und Gedächtnis vom Bildmüll entrümpeln.«

Summoning Their Elementalist

Edgar A. Poe, a Psychopathic Study

&ldquo;It's a book you want to read rather than one you should read&hellip;while still providing the chilling, fleshy pleasures of zombies who lurch, pursue, hunger. . . . One of the best books of the year.&rdquo; &mdash;Esquire "Whitehead writes with economy, texture and punch. . . . A cool, thoughtful and, for all its ludic violence, strangely tender novel, a celebration of modernity and a pre-emptive wake for its demise." &mdash;The New York Times Book Review&#160;&ldquo;Uniquely affecting. . . . A rich mix of wartime satire and darkly funny social commentary. . . . Whether charged with bleak sadness or bone-dry humor, sentences worth savoring pile up faster than the body count.&rdquo; &mdash;The Los Angeles Times"A zombie story with brains. . . . [Whitehead is a] certifiably hip writer who can spin gore into macabre poetry.&rdquo; &mdash;The Washington Post"Zone One is not the work of a serious novelist slumming it with some genre-novel cash-in, but rather a lovely piece of writing...Whitehead picks at our nervousness about order's thin grip, suggesting just how flimsy the societal walls are that make possible our hopes and dreams and overly complicated coffee orders." &mdash;Entertainment Weekly&#160;"Colson Whitehead's Zone One isn't your typical zombie novel; it trades fright-night fodder for empathy and chilling realism&hellip;yielding a haunting portrait of a lonely, desolate, and uncertain city." &mdash;Elle&#160;"The stylistic exuberance on display would be overwhelming if it weren't so well controlled, shifting weightlessly from M*A*S*H-style battle narrative to a melancholic Blade Runner-like vision of Urban devastation. . . . The smallest of details is marked by originality of language." &mdash;The New Statesman&#160;&ldquo;Leave it to the supremely thoughtful and snarkily funny Whitehead to do interesting things with a topic that lately has seated itself in the public&rsquo;s imagination. . . . Not just a juicy experiment in genre fiction but a brilliantly disguised meditation on a &lsquo;flatlined culture&rsquo; in need of its own rejuvenating psychic jolt.&rdquo; &mdash;The Seattle Times&#160;&ldquo;If you&rsquo;re going to break down and read a zombie novel, make it this one.&rdquo; &mdash;The Wall Street Journal&#160;&ldquo;Stylishly entertaining. . . . [Whitehead&rsquo;s] sentences are interesting, his plotting brisk, his descriptions lucid, and his asides clever.&rdquo; &mdash;The Plain Dealer&#160;&ldquo;In precise, elegant prose [Whitehead] deliberately layers the ever more disturbing elements of the story, one upon the other, allowing the reader to discover the horror in the same fragmentary manner we imagine frantic survivors might. . . . Resembles Cormac McCarthy&rsquo;s The Road. . . . An intense meditation on the way we cope with disaster and the stubborn, often inexplicable, persistence of the human will to survive.&rdquo; &mdash;Minneapolis Star-Tribune&#160;&#160;&ldquo;A sharp commentary on the rat race of contemporary life. . . . Zone One lifts all the gore and gunfire and oozy bits one might expect from the genre. But this is Whitehead, so there&rsquo;s also popular culture to critique and parallels to draw between zombies and contemporary society.&rdquo; &mdash;The Houston Chronicle &#160;&ldquo;[Whitehead] takes the genre of horror fiction, mines both its sense of humor and self-seriousness, and emerges with a brilliant allegory of New York living.&rdquo; &mdash;New York Observer&#160;"Highbrow novelist Colson Whitehead plunges into the unstoppable zombie genre in this subtle meditation on loss and love in a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, which has become the city that never dies." &mdash;USA Today"For-real literary&mdash;gory, lyrical, human, precise." &mdash;GQ"A satirist so playful that you often don't even feel his scalpel, Whitehead toys with the shards of contemporary culture with an infectious glee. Here he upends the tropes of the zombie story in the canyons of lower Manhattan. Horror has rarely been so unsettling, and never so grimly funny." &mdash;The Daily Beast
