Description
Comic and terrifying and profound, Wolfgang Hilbig's novel explores the complexities of human existence through the eyes of C., an acclaimed East German writer struggling with writer's block, remorse, and national guilt.
As he navigates the neon excess of the West, C. finds himself torn between two Germanys, grappling with diverging visions of the world and his place within it. This monumental novel interrogates the detritus of twentieth-century life, from addiction to consumerism, and the writer's role in a "century of lies."
Masterfully translated by Isabel Fargo Cole, The Interim is a bitter and brilliant exploration of the human condition.
