Beschreibung

<p><b>FROM THE WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 2025</b><br><br>In <i>The Last Wolf</i>, a philosophy professor is mistakenly hired to write the true tale of the last wolf of Extremadura, a barren stretch of Spain. His miserable experience is narrated in a single, rolling sentence to a patently bored bartender in a dreary Berlin bar. <br><br>In <i>Herman</i>, a master trapper is asked to clear a forest's last 'noxious beasts.' Herman begins with great zeal, although in time he switches sides, deciding to track entirely new game... In <i>Herman II</i>, the same events are related from the perspective of strange visitors to the region, a group of hyper-sexualised aristocrats who interrupt their orgies to pitch in with the manhunt of poor Herman...<br><br>These intense, perfect novellas, full of Krasznhorkai's signature sense of foreboding and dark irony, are perfect examples of his craft.<br><br><b>Translated by George Szirtes and John Batki</b></p>
