Klappentext
The author of seven full-length novels, several plays, and numerousshort fictions, John Hawkes over the course of two and a half decades
has won international acclaim. Death, Sleep & The Traveler is
about a middle-aged Dutchman, his dissolving marriage, his involvement
in two sexual triangles, his obsession with the murder he is accused of
having committed on a pleasure cruise. "It is an exceptionally concise
and beautiful work," writes the novelist-critic Jonathan Baumbach,
"delicate, erotic, dreamlike-in all, a luminous novel by the richest
prose stylist in American letters since Faulkner."
