| Publisher Description: The Conversation of the Three Wayfarers, translated by the acclaimed New Directions poet Rosmarie Waldrop, is three capers rolled into one-- a steeplechase performed on a floating pontoon. Weiss's strikingly original prose has an impossibly contained quality, with each sentence doing a perfect double-double backflip before neatly landing. This essential rediscovered work, from acclaimed German modernist Peter Weiss, will be a delightful discovery for readers of Kafka, Musil, and Gombrowicz. |
