Brendan Howley in "The Blue Ear - Global Writing Worth Reading" says:

"After the Rain is that rarest of reading experiences: principled and
thoughtful and irritating and prescient, all at once. Vaknin will be
proved right or wrong as history grinds on in the Balkans, but his is a
book I will return to."
