This is an admittedly biased statement .
The first book Open Letter published was Ugresic's Nobody's Home, and I was responsible for Dalkey's publishing Thank You for Not Reading a few years back), but I honestly believe that Dubravka Ugresic is one of the most interesting writers working today. Her books are consistently good, even across genres. The two aforementioned essay collections are spot-on, and her fiction -- from The Museum of Unconditional Surrender to Lend Me Your Character to The Ministry of Pain -- is always enjoyable, surprising, captivating, and envelope-pushing.
