Review:
"At once a satire of post-1989 politics and a love story, it shows two sides of the author: firebrand and mellowed, humane observer... The Call of The Toad shows Grass as one of our greatest living storytellers" (Financial Times)
"Mr Grass has a more lyrical, a more glorious sense of locality than any other novelist today" (New York Times)
"With The Call of the Toad, Grass brings the fable landscape of the Europe of his lifetime up to date" (Financial Times)
"A funny, wise, hugely enjoyable fantasy" (Financial Times)
