Description

The long-awaited magnum opus of 1 of americais "best, and best-overlooked" writers, experts, and tastemakers, In Incomplete Shame chronicles the troubled background of the small Central-European country through the memoirs of its most showy exile: an author, multiple-broker, and bon vivant whose youth in the fairy-story home of his puppy-teacher dad and pagan goddess mom are themselves "converted and edited" with a retired Allied traveler. Breaking the difference between your philosophical fictions of Thomas Mann and the fever-dream playfulness of Nabokov, and having a cast of heroes, width of perception, and level of stylistic legerdemain to place many modern books to shame, In Incomplete Disgrace will be the last good function to problem in the era that transformed National words in the '60s and '70s.
