Translated from the German by Kenneth J. Northcott. 114 pages. hardcover. keywords: Europe Austria Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - The Austrian playwright, novelist, and poet Thomas Bernhard (1931-89) is acknowledged as among the major writers of our times. At once pessimistic and exhilarating, Bernhard's work depicts the corruption of the modern world, the dynamics of totalitarianism, and the interplay of reality and appearance. In this stunning translation of The Voice Imitator, Bernhard gives us one of his most darkly comic works. A series of parable-like anecdotes-some drawn from newspaper reports, some from conversation, some from hearsay-this satire is both subtle and acerbic. What initially appear to be quaint little stories inevitably indict the sterility and callousness of modern life, not just in urban centers but everywhere. Bernhard presents an ordinary world careening into absurdity and disaster. Politicians, professionals, tourists, civil servants-the usual victims of Bernhard's inspired misanthropy-succumb one after another to madness, mishap, or suicide. The shortest piece, titled 'Mail,' illustrates the anonymity and alienation that have become standard in contemporary society: 'For years after our mother's death, the Post Office still delivered letters that were addressed to her. The Post Office had taken no notice of her death.' In his disarming, sometimes hilarious style, Bernhard delivers a lethal punch with every anecdote. George Steiner has connected Bernhard to 'the great constellation of Kafka, Musil, and Broch,' and John Updike has compared him to Grass, Handke, and Weiss. The Voice Imitator reminds us that Thomas Bernhard remains the most caustic satirist of our age. inventory #24683.

Translated from the German by James Reidel. 192 pages. paperback. keywords: Europe Austria Literature Poetry Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Internationally acclaimed Austrian novelist, playwright, and memoirist Thomas Bernhard (1931-1989) has been compared to Kafka and Beckett, and critics have ranked his novels among the masterpieces of the twentieth century. But in fact he began his career in the 1950s as a poet, publishing three books of well-received verse before turning to fiction. In Hora Mortis / Under the Iron of the Moon is the first book of his expressionist-like poetry to be published in English. Bringing together Bernhard's second and third books of poetry, the collection's short, untitled lyrics reveal his early explorations of themes that would continue to preoccupy him in his novels, plays, and other writings - especially his intense ambivalence toward the land and people of Austria and their then-recent Nazi past. As the translator James Reidel writes in his preface, 'Bernhard found Austrian soil. to be like a hair shirt and a blanket. It is a killing ground but with a postcard setting.' In poems that both subvert and pay homage to such influences as Georg Trakl, Bernhard begins to develop his characteristic dark humor while exploring themes of nature, death, meaninglessness, and faith. Thomas Bernhard wrote the novels Gargoyles and Woodcutters and the play Heldenplatz. James Reidel is a poet, translator, and scholar. inventory #36075.
