\u201cWHAT\u2019S MINE is a surprising and deep work with a persistent quiet momentum carrying the reader back-and-forth in time and space across the slivers of four interlocking lives. It is totally engaging.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014BRIAN ENO<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBette Adriaanse is becoming a major literary novelist in the best European tradition. She has the down-and-out life experiences of the early Orwell, the desperate humor of Flann O\u2019Brien, the prose immediacy of Beckett, and the avalanche of bureaucracy of Kafka. WHAT\u2019S MINE is a stellar achievement of depicting the absurdist brutality of contemporary urban capitalism where nothing but narcissism and arbitrary outcomes rule.\u201d<\/p>\n
