A Whole Life by Robert Seethaler
An astonishing achievement, this slim volume is a beautiful, mesmeric read. The clean, quiet prose and the depiction of dignified solitude are reminiscent of John Williams’ Stoner. Andreas Egger lives a hard, strenuous existence in the snowy Austrian Alps. The novel captures the sharpest, brightest moments of his life - you will want to read the book again and again. Perhaps the thing about these small, crystallised books is that they glitter with an irresistible intensity.
