Product Details

Author: WALSER, ROBERT
Pages: 208
Ranging from one-page fantasies to novella-length studies of everyday existence, The Walk reveals the irresistible genius of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers.
Under-appreciated even in his own lifetime, Robert Walser has nonetheless been recognised by such literary giants as:
- W.G. Sebald
- Susan Sontag
- Franz Kafka
- Herman Hesse
- J.M. Coetzee
Like Kafka and Sebald, Walser wrote about the solitude and unease of human existence. Honest, wry, and idiosyncratic, his stories are snapshots of the lives of:
- Great artists
- Poor young men
- Beautiful women
- Talking animals
Ranging from the realist to the allegorical, the short fiction collected in this volume demonstrates Walser's uncanny ability to capture both life's strangeness and its small joys.
