The Life and Times of Michael K.
14.99 €
Hunger, suffering and death reign all around. Michael K., a small man who is looked down upon because of his hare's lip, is driving his exhausted mother back to her native land. She is too exhausted to endure the journey in a tin wheelbarrow - death comes for her right on the road, and Michael is left all alone in an unjust world. Prison, torture, and a labor camp are only a fraction of what he will face. But despite the chaos all around him, Michael follows his own path to peace and freedom.
"The Life and Times of Michael K." - A stunning story about an entire era in which everyone has a place as a loser or a winner. A novel of loneliness, despair and resilience.
