Review
"Baricco continues to blend the best elements of cinema and poetry. . . . Without Blood applies the delicacy of Baricco's style to dark territory: war, human cruelty and revenge." --San Francisco Chronicle"Mesmerizing and starkly beautiful. . . . The effect is awesome." --The Observer (London)"Powerful. . . . Designed not for consumption, but for meditation. This story hangs around the neck, curls into you." --Review of Contemporary Fiction"The lightness of Baricco's prose and his ability to zero in on inexplicable moments of beauty and meaning make Without Blood a compelling read." --Time Out New York
Book Description
'Contained in theses few page is a complete portrait of what it means to be human, at our most elemental, and the effect is awesome.' The Observer
