GERT HOFMANN

Balzac, Casanova, Lenz y Robert Walser son los protagonistas de los cuatro relatos que componen este volumen. Todos ellos pertenecen a la categoría de los eternamente amenazados; de aquellos libros suyos son las trazas de una vida paradigmatica.

A childs-eye view of a family in decline, Gert Hofmanns Luck mixes humour and suspense with a heartbreaking pathos. This is the story of a nuclear family: father, mother, daughter and son. But all is not as it seems, for the mother is in love with Herr Herkenrath, and now father and son will have to leave home.
