Reviews
"A haunting, hypnotic novel that collapses the distances between violence and beauty, horror and longing, art and decay. I was completely absorbed in its nuanced, atmospheric world, at once familiar and menacingly strange, and I am astonished by Christine Lai's vision." --Aysegül Savas, author of White on White and Walking on the Ceiling "For all its eerily ephemeral worldbuilding, its quiet ruined setting, Landscapes is a raw-nerve of a novel. In a love letter to and elegy for disappearing art in a disappearing world, Christine Lai has managed to lay bare the mechanics of loss, both personal and communal. The result is a masterful inspection of what it means to live through decay, to grasp, amidst so much loss, the unreliable lifeboat of memory. A transcendent, achingly beautiful debut." -Omar El Akkad, Giller Prize-winning author of What Strange Paradise and American War "This is an extraordinary work--a contemplative novel set in a postapocalyptic landscape, that meditates on painting, specifically J.M.W Turner's ruins. The diary running through, both archiving the past as well as cataloguing the natural world, is reminiscent of Marlen Haushofer's The Wall as well as Derek Jarman's gardening journals, in their devastation and slow beauty. Christine Lai's exquisite speculative fiction as art criticism should be read alongside Aysegül Savas, Amina Cain, Maria Gainza, and Judith Schalansky." --Kate Zambreno, author of Drifts and The Light Room "Gentle and wise, intimate and atmospheric, elegant and impressionistic, at the center of Landscapes is a question that is almost always on my mind now. What do we do with art, with beauty, in a time of crisis and collapse?" -Amina Cain, author of A Horse at Night and Indelicacy "Christine Lai's Landscapes is a haunting archive of the long-gone, the broken, and the soon-to-be-lost -- a study in disintegration -- but also, simultaneously, a heady page-turner about beauty and community and, through these, hope. A startling and beautiful debut." -Danielle Dutton, author of Margaret the First and SPRAWL "In deft movements triangulating possession, loss, and memory, Lai's meditative accounting of lives and culture in violent displacement and ruination feels like a witnessing of our probable path through the years ahead, in which all may be uncertain but the human will to repair and rebuild." -Pitchaya Sudbanthad, author of Bangkok Wakes to Rain "A marvelous, deeply intelligent novel about art, and ruins, and loss - and the stubborn, beautiful human urge to never give up. Christine Lai's Landscapes shimmers in the mind's eye, long after the last page has been turned. Wonderful." --Steven Price, author of Lampedusa "This is a novel engaged in inventive, intelligent, challenging conversation with the literature of the past, while presenting a clear-eyed and prescient vision of the future. Lai writes gorgeously of transience and decay, capturing the aesthetic ecstasy and redemptive power of art while interrogating its role in a crumbling and unjust world. A bold and rewarding debut." --Kim Fu, author of Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century, "A haunting, hypnotic novel that collapses the distances between violence and beauty, horror and longing, art and decay. I was completely absorbed in its nuanced, atmospheric world, at once familiar and menacingly strange, and I am astonished by Christine Lai's vision." --Aysegül Savas, author of White on White and Walking on the Ceiling "For all its eerily ephemeral worldbuilding, its quiet ruined setting, Landscapes is a raw-nerve of a novel. In a love letter to and elegy for disappearing art in a disappearing world, Christine Lai has managed to lay bare the mechanics of loss, both personal and communal.
