Woodcutters

Thomas Bernhard

1984 · Literary Fiction

Tr. David McLintock

Picked by Alasdair

A man sits in a wingchair at a Viennese dinner party and thinks, at length and with increasing fury, about everyone in the room. Bernhard's sentences are long, repetitive, and hypnotic. He was sued by the Austrian government after publication. Worth knowing.
