A spellbinding short story collection by one of Austria's most
critically acclaimed authors. A man becomes obsessed with observing
his neighbours. A large family gathers for Christmas only to wait
for the one member who never turns up. An old woman lures a man
into her house where he finds dolls resembling himself as a boy.
Mesmerizing and haunting stories about loss of identity in the
modern world. ------- Why Peirene chose to publish this book: 'I
love Kafka and here we have a Kafkaesque sense of alienation - not
to mention narrative experiments galore! Outwardly normal events
slip into drama before they tip into horror. These oblique tales
exert a fascinating hold over the reader.' Meike Ziervogel,
