  • "Als een sinoloog uit zijn studieus isolement gehaald wordt, leidt dat tot bizarre ontwikkelingen."
  • "Satirisch-ontledende beschrijving van enkele in hun waandenkbeelden ingekapselde individuen, waarin tevens de conventies van de beschaving gehekeld worden."
  • "Le professeur Peter Kien, savant sinologue est passionné par les livres. Il est ravi de constater, en regardant les devantures de toutes les librairies, que chaque jour la mauvaise graine et l'ivraie gagnent du terrain.--[Memento]."

  • ""Auto-da-Fe," Elias Canetti's only work of fiction, is a staggering achievement that puts him squarely in the ranks of major European writers such as Robert Musil and Hermann Broch. It is the story of Peter Kien, a scholarly recluse who lives among and for his great library. The destruction of Kien through the instrument of the illiterate, brutish housekeeper he marries constitutes the plot of the book. The best writers of our time have been concerned with the horror of the modern world--one thinks of Kafka, to whom Canetti has often been compared. But "Auto-de-Fe" stands as a completely original, unforgettable treatment of the modern predicament."@en
