STILL LIFE WITH WILD ANIMAL

Martin Mosebach’s early stories are packed with subtle surprises, with memory often recurring as an important motif in his prose. A fantastical Italy, for example, is mixed with pictures of recent German history.

This volume presents an array of unsettling, funny and tragic figures. Martin Mosebach writes with a love of detail and depth of feeling that captures the vivid colouration and peculiarity of the settings of his stories.
