The Physics of Sorrow
Gospodinov Georgi'Compulsively readable' New York Times'Utterly original' Alberto ManguelIn the small and the insignificant - that's where life hides, that's where it builds its nest. Our unnamed narrator is not well. Čítať ďalej ↓
He suffers from attacks of 'pathological empathy', which cause him to wander unbidden into other people's memories.
He moves from recollection to recollection - from a Bulgarian country fair in 1925, where he meets a Minotaur, to inside the mind of a slug, as it is swallowed by his own Grandfather. Part family history, part coming-of-age story, part meditation on life in Communist Europe, The Physics of Sorrow is a dazzlingly inventive, mind-expanding novel from one of Europe's most important writers. TRANSLATED FROM THE BULGARIAN BY ANGELA RODEL
