The Old Child & Other Stories

The Old Child & Other Stories
- Used Book in Good Condition
The Old Child & Other Stories introduces in English one of Germanyâ€™s most original and brilliant young authors, Jenny Erpenbeck.
Written in spare, highly concentrated language, "a sustained feat of verbal economy" (Die Zeit), the one novella and four stories inÂ The Old ChildÂ go beyond the limits of the expected, the real. Dark, serious, often mystical, these marvelous fictions about womenâ€™s lives provide glimpses into the minds of outcasts and eccentrics, at the same time bearing out Dostoevskyâ€™s comment that hope can be found so long as a man can see even a tiny view of the sky.
