Salman Rushdie explains why we “must read” Cosmicomics, Italo Calvino’s “absurd, charming masterpiece."
“I first read Cosmicomics in my early 20s, and it's a book I've gone back to again and again. It is possibly the most enjoyable story collection ever written, a book that will frequently make you laugh out loud at its mischievous mastery, capricious ingenuity and nerve.” – from “You Must Read This,” by Salman Rushdie, NPR’s All Things Considered
