Shimmering Details Volume 1

The magnum opus of one one of Europe's greatest living writers. Now, in his illuminating memoir, the renowned author investigates what it means to reconstruct a life without recourse to the techniques and embellishments of traditional storytelling. Taking his firmly embedded memories - the "shimmering details" that give this work its title - as his starting point, Nádas dissects them using a method inspired by Freudian dream interpretation.
