an excerpt
in
the
Partisan Review
'THls
is a distinguished
novel of ideas-but that
hardly begins to describe a
book of many qualities. It is
social satire, incisive and en–
tertaining ... Musil is a sort
of day-light Kafka. His world
is just as ominous and frus–
trating, but it is softer in tex–
ture,
if
quite as weird, and it
summons up all its gaiety to
face the void."
- MAXWELL
