El miedo del portero al penalti
A novel that, since its publication, has remained an original and surprising discovery. One of the major works by the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate. "The goalkeeper watched the ball roll over the line..." Josef Bloch, a former football goalkeeper, is fired from his job as a mechanic and must begin a new phase in his life through paths as painful as they are unknown to him. He will scrupulously live every moment of the day, but he will also pass through them as if a cotton veil enveloped everything. Neither cinema, nor crime, nor travel will succeed in creating sensations capable of reaching his consciousness in a clear way. Only the memories of his time as a footballer will be able to appear before him in a more or less apprehensible manner. Critics have said: "Handke has become a classic. [...] A writer who, with his sharp, relentless gaze and attentive ear, traces the precise contours of the air." "Handke belongs to the intellectual breed who make writing an incendiary testament, a diatribe against conventions." "Peter Handke, rightful winner of the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature, is the writer who made the world, not the characters or their consciousnesses, speak in an interior monologue and made us know what the world thought and how it thought." "The Nobel Prize—at last!—that Peter Handke has just received is a recognition and a reward for a work destined to endure for a long time." |
