Brilliant . . . Elegantly translated by Angela Rodel, The Physics of Sorrow is a fragmented novel that coheres into a remarkable, thought-provoking whole. It is a winding labyrinth through Bulgarian communism, art, literature, history, the personal past, love, sorrow, and so much more., The Physics of Sorrow is a novel to get lost in and a desperate struggle to look everywhere -- in history, politics, science, myth, literature, and Tamagotchi (really) -- to make one's place in it all make sense., There are very few novels that appear to a seasoned reader as utterly original: The Physics of Sorrow is one of these rare books., There is something of Dostoyevsky's Underground Man here, furiously attempting to write the world before it's all swept away... the result is a powerful toast to living., In this swirling, ruminative novel, translated by Rodel, award-winning Bulgarian poet, playwright, and novelist Gospodinov takes the mythological minotaur as the central figure in a metafictional narrative that leaps through time and space, from King Minos' palace to communist Bulgaria, from politics to quantum physics . . . A playful, profound meditation on storytelling and time.

Synopsis
Published a decade before his International Booker Prize-winning Time Shelter, Georgi Gospodinov's The Physics of Sorrow has become an underground cult classic. Finding strange solace in the myth of the Minotaur, a man named Georgi reconstructs the story of his life like a labyrinth, meandering through the past to find the melancholy child at the center of it all. With profound wit and empathy, he catalogues curious instances of abandonment, spanning from antiquity to the Anthropocene; recounts scenes of a turbulent boyhood in 1970s Bulgaria, spent mostly in a basement; and charts a bizarre run-in with an eccentric flaneur named Gaustine. Exquisitely translated by Angela Rodel, and exhibiting his signature audacious style, this expansive work affirms Gospodinov as "one of Europe's most fascinating and irreplaceable novelists" (Dave Eggers)., A radical reimagining of the minotaur myth, from an essential voice in world literature. Winner of the Jan Michalski Prize for Literature * Finalist for the PEN Literary Award for Translation and the Strega Europeo, A radical reimagining of the minotaur myth, from an essential voice in world literature.
