520    "A triumphant, one-of-a-kind experiment . . . Much of  
       Empty Set  concerns the trauma of exile and its long-
       lasting effect on interrupted lives." — Chicago Review of 
       Books      How do you draw an affair? A family? Can a Venn
       diagram show the ways overlaps turn into absences, tree 
       rings tell us what happens when mothers leave? Can we fall
       in love according to the hop skip of an acrostic?  Empty 
       Set  is a novel of patterns, its young narrator's attempt 
       at making sense of inevitable loss, tracing her way 
       forward in loops, triangles, and broken lines.    "The 
       pure pleasure of this book is being inside our heroine 
       Vero's head: the way she Venns relationships like an auto-
       dendrochronologist, someone who has serious questions 
       about plywood, but also about exile, Argentina, and the 
       kind of loneliness that accompanies being part of an empty
       set." — The Rumpus     "A smart story of love and loss 
       with a clever mix of narrative techniques,  Empty Set  may
       be an antidote to the current climate of despair." — Los 
       Angeles Review of Books     "An experimental mix of prose,
       diagrams and literary artifacts that is also, somehow, 
       breathlessly plotted." — Minneapolis   Star-Tribune     
       "In  Empty Set , Verónica Gerber Bicecci has found a 
       seemingly new and fascinating way to tell and show us a 
       vital story of modern loneliness, exile, and imagination."
       — Words Without Borders     "Within the deliberately 
       fractured text, themes echo and time folds and unfolds. A 
       spare, artfully constructed meditation on loss, both 
       personal and national." — Kirkus Reviews
