Nothing in Elias' measured life, in his whole career as a teacher
of literature, in his marriage to the 'indescribably beautiful'
Eva, foreshadowed the events of that apparently ordinary day. He
makes sure he has his headache pills and leaves for work as he has
done every morning for the past twenty-five years. He is only too
familiar with his pupils' hostile attitude both to his lectures and
to himself, but today he feels their impatience, their oafishness,
more painfully than ever before and, after their ritually
dismissive and bored response to his passionate lecture on Ibsen's
The Wild Duck, he reaches a point of crisis. Elegant, pocket-sized
paperbacks, VINTAGE Editions celebrate the audacity and ambition of
the written word, transporting readers to wherever in the world
literary innovation may be found.
