Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Two novellas by Peter Handke-his first new works since he won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Second Sword and My Day in the Other Land are two new novellas by the 2019 Nobel laureate Peter Handke. The first picks up the story where Handke's last work of fiction, The Fruit Thief (described in The New York Times as 'an experience of unadulterated literature'), left off. Here a man has returned to his home in the suburbs of Paris, only to soon set out again. Why We learn, over the course of a story redolent of Handke's harrowing A Sorrow Beyond Dreams, that he is seeking to avenge his mother, who has been unjustly denounced in the pages of a newspaper. The Second Sword is a suspenseful work of self-examination: Will the narrator's journey end in him throwing down the gauntlet My Day in the Other Land is Handke's most recently published work-and the first to be written after he was awarded the Nobel Prize. Evoking imagery from the Bible and classical mythology, it portrays a man who has been possessed by demons, causing him to rage endlessly against the inhabitants of his rural village. Aided by his sister, he embarks on a journey to a lake on whose opposite shore lies the 'other land.' What ensues is an exorcism of sorts-and one of Handke's most evocative and original endings. Together, The Second Sword and My Day in the Other Land are essential new entries in a body of work like no other.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. 224 S. The Great Fall by Peter Handke follows one day in the life of an ageing actor as he walks from the outskirts of a great city toward its centre. On his way to receive a prestigious award and prepare for what may be his final film role, he encounters figures at the margins of society the homeless, migrants, outcasts and moves through forests, suburbs, highways and abandoned places. Written in Handkes distinctive, introspective style, the novel becomes less a conventional plot-driven story than a literary journey through memory, alienation, observation and the strange tensions of modern life. This English translation by Krishna Winston presents the work of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2019 winner in a thoughtful and atmospheric edition. Small signature line: A walk through the city, a fall through the mind classic Handke territory.
