"Through this brilliantly incisive tale of a man determined to be the best feminist ever, Iván Repila takes us on a no-holds-barred, brutally satirical, and wild ride through twenty-first-century machismo and misogyny. Deeply intelligent, brave, funny, and provocative." –Julianne Pachico, author of
The Anthill and
The Lucky Ones Praise for
The Boy Who Stole Attila's Horse "This exquisite, terrifying novella is daunting and magnificent, a book that celebrates storytelling as the truest way towards understanding existence." –
Irish Times "A stark allegory about the experience of being arbitrarily imprisoned...Repila gives us ground for optimism in this climate of austerity...the ending of this bitter-sweet fable of our times is both tragic and a call to arms." –
Times Literary Supplement "Hughes's vibrant translation aids Repila's lyrical descriptions of anguish and hope, and the narrative's intelligence and depth make it a gripping read." –
