A beautifully written prose work, Tsing is a multilayered narrative that combines a wholly fictional novel-within-a-novel with an episodic chronicle of the narrator's present as a traveler to and visiting writer in the United States. Much more than an "ordinary" postmodern text, Tsing is a quiet and moving paean to the narrator's deceased father. Beginning with a series of imagined vignettes involving a father and a daughter, Albahari weaves both real and imagined narrative fragments together with considerable skill. As Albahari's fragments -- simple stories about persons approaching each other, spending some time together, and eventually going their separate ways -- accumulate, his deft combination of paradox and poetry provides a kaleidoscopic view of memory, love, and loneliness. Albahari's is a world where absence is presence and presence is absence, where life's only certainty is its uncertainty, and where the most disparate of experiences eventually unite to form a single, unbroken strand.
