The autobiographical stories of the classic of modern Austrian literature, prose writer and playwright Thomas Bernhard (1931–1989) are one of the brightest pages of “confessional” prose of the 20th century and at the same time a unique literary experiment. The search for words and images in which it is possible (or is it impossible?) to convey the truth about at least one person - about himself, is carried out by the author in the meditative space of a stylistically sophisticated literary text, generated by the reality of what Bernhard himself experienced.
