Description
Wolfgang Hilbig's "i" is a darkly comedic exploration of state power and surveillance. In this black comedy, W, a seemingly insignificant figure in East Berlin's literary scene, is revealed to be a Stasi informant. However, his true desire lies not in uncovering political secrets, but in regaining his lost memories - the "I" he has been trying to rediscover. First published in Germany in 1993, "i" offers a penetrating vision of life under surveillance, its themes feeling increasingly relevant today. Now available for the first time in English, this engrossing read is not to be missed.
