   What is 'flights' by Olga Tokarczuk about?

   • Illustration by Agata Nowicka “Flights,” by the Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk (Riverhead), is exciting in the way that unclassifiable things are exciting—that is to say, at times confoundingly so.

   What does Tokarczuk say about Wikipedia?

   • Emperor Joseph II, Tokarczuk announces with apparent approval, collected “every manifestation of the aberration of the world” in his “cabinet of curiosities.” One of the book’s most suggestive micro-essays concerns Wikipedia, which Tokarczuk rightly lauds as a “wonder of the world,” a project to gather the entire globe’s knowledge.

   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.
