"Without the futurist elements of Döblin’s work from Wang Lun to Berlin Alexanderplatz, my prose is inconceivable…He’ll discomfort you, give you bad dreams. If you’re satisfied with yourself, beware of Döblin." —Günter Grass
"I learned more about the essence of the epic from Döblin than from anyone else. His epic writing and even his theory about the epic strongly influenced my own dramatic art." —Bertolt Brecht
"I consider Döblin’s 1915 novel, The Three Leaps of Wang Lun, the best contemporary German novel by far. It exhibits an entirely superior, most rare, talent. It is true art." —Max Horkheimer
