Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Baur and Bindsch dler, two old friends from their army days, embark on their habitual walk to the town's edge. Baur speaks incessantly, weaving between past and present with a mix of trivial observations and profound insights, while Bindsch dler listens, reflecting on their conversation. This meandering exploration of mortality serves as a gentle complement to the works of contemporaries like Samuel Beckett and Thomas Bernhard, as well as Robert Walser. Their riverside ramble transforms into a metaphysical inquiry, with their thoughts intertwining to the point where distinguishing one from the other becomes challenging. The afterword by Burton Pike highlights the constant presence of nature—the wind, drifting clouds, and autumn leaves—inviting readers to immerse themselves in the characters' contemplations. Over the initial pages, one is drawn into the meticulously crafted world, where wonder is expressed with wit and humor, layered beneath a sense of regret. This subtle novel stands apart from others by conveying not alienation but a deep appreciation for life’s intricacies.
