Eduard Limonov — rebel politic i comarul cel mai cumplit al lui Putin.“ – The GuardianLimonov nu este un personaj de ficiune. El exist.A fost un haiduc ucrainean; idol al underground-ului sovietic; ceretor, apoi valet al unui miliardar din Manhattan; scriitor la mod parizian; soldat pierdut pe undeva, prin Balcani; i acum, n imensa harababur postcomunist, btrn ef charismatic al unui partid al tinerilor desperados. Personal, se consider un erou, dar poate fi socotit i un ticlos. [...] viaa lui romanesc i periculoas spune ceva. Nu doar despre el, despre Limonov, nu doar despre Rusia, ci despre istoria noastr, a tuturor, de la ncheierea celui de-al Doilea Rzboi Mondial ncoace.“ – Emmanuel CarrèreRoman biografic sau biografie ficionalizat, cartea lui Emmanuel Carrère reconstruiete viaa unui personaj real, ivit parc din paginile unei cri. Un personaj excentric, ambiguu, evaziv i schimbtor, cu o via aproape neverosimil de aventuroas, care i permite autorului s traseze un portret convingtor al Rusiei din ultimii cincizeci de ani i n acelai timp s se lanseze ntr-o explorare uimitoare a paradoxurilor condiiei umane.Ca artist i politician, Limonov e, fr ndoial, unic i complex — un adevrat fenomen rusesc, o reflectare a intensitii neobinuite ce definete viaa n Rusia. i, aidoma rii din care vine, tocmai contradiciile sale l fac att de viu. – The GuardianIntimist, perspectiva lui Carrère este totodat istoric, ridicnd n jurul eroului su echivoc i temerar o vast i vibrant scen de teatru: URSS-ul izolat din anii lui Brejnev, apoi dezagregarea comunismului i, n fine, aruncarea Rusiei n capitalismul mafiot i ntr-un haos de proporii.Carrère nu-i asum niciodat poziia de judector, ns tie s insereze n amplul su roman de aventuri puternic ancorat n real meditaii profunde asupra destinului att al individului, ct i al civilizaiilor.“ – TéléramaNu mai viseaz la o insurecie violent, ci, mai degrab, la o revoluie portocalie, cum tocmai se produsese n Ucraina. O revoluie panic, democrat, de care se teme cel mai tare Kremlinul pe care e gata s l zdrobeasc prin indiferent ce mijloace. Iat de ce duce viaa asta de om hituit. Cu civa ani n urm, a fost fcut praf cu bte de baseball. Totul a renceput, abia dac a scpat unui atentat. Numele i figureaz n fruntea listei dumanilor Rusiei, adic a oamenilor de suprimat, pe care oficinele apropiate puterii i propun rzbunrii poporului, fcndu-le publice adresele i numerele de telefon. Ceilali de pe list erau Politkovskaia, ucis cu o puc cu aer comprimat, ex-ofierul FSB Litvinenko, otrvit cu poloniu dup ce denunase deriva criminal a serviciilor secrete, miliardarul Hodorkovski, nchis n Siberia pentru c a vrut s se bage n politic. Urmtorul e el, Limonov.

Hanna Bota scrie cri ale descoperirii de sine prin Cellalt, prin Ceilali. Aceast mare i veche tem are, n cazul ei, o rezolvare aparte, cci Cellalt este nu doar cel din vecintate, ci i, mai ales, cel de foarte departe, tritor n orizonturi exotice, acolo unde diferena e strident i numai privirea lateral, n mai multele sensuri ale acesteia, poate conduce spre esena uman, spre miezul tare al fiinei. Punnd la btaie, n surprinztoare conexiuni, feluritele instrumente de cunoatere i interpretare pe care le-a acumulat n timp: literatur, etnologie, antropologie cultural, teologie, nu se mulumete cu privirea fix, focalizat, ghidat strict de regulile tiinei sale, ci tenteaz pai lturalnici, sensuri derivate, improvizeaz interdisciplinar, se pune pe sine n locul celuilalt pentru a-i descifra perspectiva, nelinitile, modelul de lume.Ultimul canibal ne purtase n insulele Vanuatu din Pacific.
