Description
Set in 1960, Nobel Prize winner Peter Handke's Repetition tells the story of Filib Kobal's journey as he searches for his missing brother. Armed with only two books - a copy from agricultural school and a Slovenian-German dictionary that Gregor had marked - Filib embarks on an investigation into the laws of language and naming, which becomes a transformative exploration of himself and the world around him.
This novel is a testament to Handke's mastery of language and his ability to craft complex, thought-provoking stories. With Repetition, he reaffirms his reputation as one of the most important writers of our time.
