Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The lyrical, bestselling 2014 German Book Prize winner, from the winner of the 2023 Georg Buchner Prize.It is 1989, and a young literature student named Ed, fleeing unspeakable tragedy, travels to the Baltic island of Hiddensee. Long shrouded in myth, the island is a notorious destination for hippies, idealists, and those at odds with the East German state.On the island, Ed stumbles upon the Klausner, Hiddensee's most popular restaurant, and ends up washing dishes there, despite his lack of papers. Although he is keen to remain on the sidelines, Ed feels drawn towards the charismatic Kruso, unofficial leader of the seasonal workers.Everyone dances to Kruso's tune. He is on a mission - but to what end, and at what cost? Ed finds himself drawn ever deeper into the island's rituals, and ever more in need of Kruso's acceptance and affection. As the wave of history washes over the German Democratic Republic, the friends' grip on reality loosens and life on the island will never be the same.'An important work . in its chronicling of the final days of communism in East Germany . Excellent translation.'-Adrian Tahourdin, Times Literary SupplementThe German poet Lutz Seiler has brought all his art, linguistic ease, flair for dazzling images and mastery of what he describes as "the nervous systems of memory" to this extraordinary debut novel . Kruso is an exciting, expansive work of German literature; it may well prove one of the major novels of the 21st century.'-Eileen Battersby, The Irish Times'An enigmatic Bildungsroman, adapting the literary trope of the island refuge to the dying days of East German socialism . English readers can delight in this prizewinning translation from Tess Lewis, which renders Seiler's vision in prose of startling clarity.'-The Saturday Age Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
