Laddar... Gamla mästare : komedi (1985)av Thomas Bernhard
![]() Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. Thomas Bernhard is the sole reason I actually enjoy having german as a mother tongue. His usage of the german language is just phenomenal. There are not many writers in the german speaking areas that can write like he does. ( ![]() Second rate Bernhard, which is a bit like saying that the two-inch slice a foot from the end of the three-foot long salami is not as good as the two-inch slice six inches to the right. It's all salami. Still, I won't rush to re-read this one. I thought I was going to love this. Angry old man ranting about the world. When I started to become less amused I put it away and tried it in ever smaller doses. After all, one wouldn't watch Grumpy Old Men for 24 hours on the trot. But it just stopped pleasing me to the extent that eventually I did no more than flick through the last fifty pages or more, hoping I'd spot enlightenment were it to appear. It doesn't. The Art Historian The art historians are the real wreckers of art. The art historians twaddle so long about art until they killed it with their twaddle.....The art historians' trade is the vilest trade there is...

In this exuberantly satirical novel, the tutor Atzbacher has been summoned by his friend Reger to meet him in a Viennese museum. While Reger gazes at a Tintoretto portrait, Atzbacher--who fears Reger's plans to kill himself--gives us a portrait of the musicologist: his wisdom, his devotion to his wife, and his love-hate relationship with art. With characteristically acerbic wit, Bernhard exposes the pretensions and aspirations of humanity in a novel at once pessimistic and strangely exhilarating. "Bernhard's . . . most enjoyable novel."--Robert Craft, New York Review of Books. "Bernhard is one of the masters of contemporary European fiction."--George Steiner Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
