Schulz jest wybitnym pisarzem. Sposób w jaki przedstawia najprostsze rzeczy, jest niesamowity. To jak ukazuje świat, potrafi opisać to co widzi, jest jednocześnie zaskakujące, jak i przepiękne.
Zdumiewająco przedstawił doświadczenia chłopaka, posługując się oryginalnymi opisami.
Jedna z najbardziej skomplikowanych i pięknych książek w moim życiu, które są o życiu. Bólu utracenia bliskich i ich wygaszanie w czasie. Przygnębiająco prawdziwa książka.

This is as if someone wrote the perfect book just for me.
The writing is as dense and rich as that of Marcel Proust. The plot is as abstract and surrealist as that of Italo Calvino. There is the magical realism of Marquez. And, it doesn't overstay its welcome.

Bruno Schulz obviously read a lot of Kafka.
Why does everyone love this guy so much? Sure, he writes beautifully and poetically, but he's not saying anything that hasn't been said before (even in 1934). I could be hideously wrong, but it seems to me that the bulk of Schulz's literary fame stems from his death. What a grotesque and lovely picture, that of a gifted writer shot dead by a Nazi bullet.
