This is collection of the stories written by a distinguished German author who died in 1973. Reading these stories entails abandoning the terms of one's own comfort. The author's relentless vision demands that readers allows themselves to be hypnotised, taken over by her repetitive cadences and burning images of grief and loss. And yet, in the beauty of her images there is a tremendous affirmation of the world.

They are rather moments of reflection, lyrical impressions, monologues, and tightly composed images to suggest a radical rebellion against that `worst of all possible worlds' in which the protagonists find themselves." From Karen Achberger's Introduction.
