This is collection of the stories written by a distinguished German author who died in 1973. Reading these stories entails abandoning the terms of one's own comfort. The author's relentless vision demands that readers allows themselves to be hypnotised, taken over by her repetitive cadences and burning images of grief and loss. And yet, in the beauty of her images there is a tremendous affirmation of the world.

Editorial Reviews
From Scientific American
Intensely felt, uncomfortable, stylistically brilliant, resonant and imaginative.

From The New Yorker
Bachmann writes in a Cublist prose of sudden cutoffs and reconnections that is acute and moving. She manages to convey that her women are playing out the Europe of their time and of before their time.
