Description
Instead of the book hex2019;s meant to write, Rudolph, a Viennese musicologist, produces this dark and grotesquely funny account of small woes writ large, of profound horrors detailed and rehearsed to the point of distraction. We learn of Rudolphx2019;s sister, whose help he invites, then reviles as malevolent meddling; his x2018;really marvelousx2019; house, which he hates; the suspicious illness he carefully nurses; his ten-year-long attempt to write the perfect opening sentence; and, finally, his escape to the island of Majorca, which turns out to be the site of someone elsex2019;s very real horror story.xA0;A brilliant and haunting tale of procrastination, failure, and despair, Concrete is a perfect example of why Thomas Bernhard is remembered as x201C;one of the masters of contemporary European fictionx201D; (George Steiner).
