Review
Completely arresting. He [Carrère] has the talent...of showing us his foibles without demanding that we identify with them. - The Times
An exhilarating new work of autofiction... It's wonderful. It is Carrère's willingness to face his own flaws full in the face that makes his writing so striking, and - dare I say it - relatable. -- Cal Flyn - Literary Review
Yoga is the story of how a life can fray, tighten itself into a noose, unravel and, in the process, be built and braided into lines that make up a profound and moving work of art. -- Geoff Dyer
A devastating portrait...[Carrère's] singular, ever-expanding work, in which one pain need never obscure another, in which truths and half-truths are held not in opposition but in delicate, precarious balance, is an answer in itself. -- Sam Byers - Guardian
I loved Emmanuel Carrère's Yoga... A useful manual for this era, where nothing seems connected but everything's related. -- Adam Thirlwell - Times Literary Supplement *Books of the Year*
