   Why is Tokarczuk a great redescriber?

   • Because Tokarczuk is such a talented redescriber of the world, the book is at its best not in the ozone of abstraction but when it registers, as it so often does, particularities closer to the earth. Her discerning eye shakes things up, in the same way that her book scrambles conventional forms.
