About this product

Product Information

Nobel Prize winner Peter Handke's first full-length drama, hailed in Europe as the play of the decade and compared in importance to Waiting for Godot Kaspar is the story of an autistic adolescent who finds himself at a complete existential loss on the stage, with but a single sentence to call his own. Drilled by prompters who use terrifyingly funny logical and alogical language-sequences, Kaspar learns to speak normally and eventually becomes creative--doing his own thing with words; for this he is destroyed. In Offending the Audience and Self-Accusation , one-character speak-ins, Handke further explores the relationship between public performance and personal identity, forcing us to reconsider our sense of who we are and what we know.

"It's not often you come across writing that resounds with the undeniable sense that a writer's life hangs in the balance." -- Sam Shepard, Vanity Fair "Unmistakably one of the best writers we have in that self-discovering tendency in contemporary writing we have chosen to call post-modernism. His plays and novels have steadily and splendidly put to the test many of our essential presumptions about the nature of reality and art." -- Malcolm Bradbury, The New York Times Book Review, "It's not often you come across writing that resounds with the undeniable sense that a writer's life hangs in the balance."--Sam Shepard, Vanity Fair "Unmistakably one of the best writers we have in that self-discovering tendency in contemporary writing we have chosen to call post-modernism.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
