Omschrijving
A literary event--the long-awaited novel, almost two decades in work, by the acclaimed author of The Tunnel. "Middle C takes its place in that great line of modern novels about inauthenticity. . . . However, there is nothing sham to Gass's art: It's not just dazzling, it's the real thing." --The Washington Post Middle C follows Joseph Skizzen, who as a child flees Nazi-era Austria with his family, only to lose his father under mysterious circumstances in wartime London. Resettled in small-town Ohio, Joseph grows into a quiet, unremarkable man on the surface: a piano player, a teacher, a son left behind. But beneath that life, he constructs another identity, one obsessed with humanity's darkest crimes and a strange personal project he calls the Inhumanity Museum. As memory, imagination, and reality blur, Joseph begins to question who he truly is, and whether any version of the self can be innocent. Spanning from World War II Europe to postwar America, William Gass weaves a daring, inventive narrative that blends music, philosophy, and language into a powerful exploration of identity, morality, and the stories we tell ourselves.
Middle C is a bold, unconventional novel that challenges traditional storytelling while delivering a deeply human portrait of guilt and self-creation.
From one of America's most celebrated literary voices, this is a work of rare ambition, haunting, intricate, and unforgettable.
