Eigbt O'Clock is a collection of thematically linked short stories that traces the course of one life through horrifying and tumultuous times. Yet it is the style of the writing itself - allusive, moody poetic, evocative - that draws the reader into Manea's very personal and very original fictional world: the internment camps of the Ukraine ("Death," "The Sweater"), the troubled return home after the war ("Weddings," "The Balls of Faded Yarn"), the lingering, unhealed wounds that reopen many years later ("The Partition," "October, Eight O'Clock," "The Turning Point"). Manea's writing is rich, enveloping, intense; his stories have the force and power of myth and are capable of sudden and surprising emotional shifts whose grace and beauty leave the reader breathless. When these stories were published in Europe, critics compared them to the work of Bruno Schultz and Robert Musil and saw in Manea an heir to Kafka.
