"Reading Yoko Tawada is an immensely fun and occasionally bewildering experience. Suggested in the Stars combines linguistic playfulness with a mind-expanding worldview, challenging perceptions of reality."
"Here, Tawada goes one step further: Japan — or the land of sushi — has disappeared altogether, leading to an action-packed voyage where language becomes the central focus of the narrative."
"Each character takes a chapter in turn, resulting in a novel that is innately multifaceted, exploring their diverse backgrounds while addressing themes of language and identity."
"Questions about language anchor the book to our ever more globalized world, as characters grapple with their identities and roles in this new narrative landscape."
