À propos de ce produit

Product Information

"What I wanted more than anything was to be standing beside Schmidt, in concert with Schmidt, at the foot of Saint Sebastian's Abyss along with Schmidt, hands cupped to the sides of our faces, debating art, transcendence, and the glory of the apocalypse." Former best friends who built their careers writing about a single work of art meet after a decades-long falling-out. One of them, called to the other's deathbed for unknown reasons by a "relatively short" nine-page email, spends his flight to Berlin reflecting on Dutch Renaissance painter Count Hugo Beckenbauer and his masterpiece, Saint Sebastian's Abyss, the work that established both men as important art critics and also destroyed their relationship. A darkly comic meditation on art, obsession, and the enigmatic power of friendship, Saint Sebastian's Abyss stalks the museum halls of Europe, feverishly seeking salvation, annihilation, and the meaning of belief.

Reviews
Praise for Reinhardt's Garden: Longlisted for the 2020 PEN/Hemingway Award for a Debut Novel The Millions, "Most Anticipated of 2019" Texas Observer, "Best Texas Books of the Decade" "Evokes Gertrude Stein, contemporary European and South American writers like Matthias Énard, Roberto Bolaño, and César Aira, with the Quixotic atmosphere of Werner Herzog films like Fitzcarraldo. . . . A strange but lavishly imagined tale of a hard-to-describe feeling." --Kirkus "An exhilarating fever dream about the search for the secret of melancholy. . . . Haber's dizzying vision dextrously leads readers right into the melancholic heart of darkness." --Publishers Weekly " Heart of Darkness viewed in a fun house mirror." -- Library Journal [Reinhardt's Garden is] an absurdist delight, a grand adventure of passion and lunacy, a brilliant book about melancholy that is anything but doleful. - Laura Calaway, Texas Observer "Haber, who has been called 'one of the most influential yet low-key of tastemakers in the book world,' is about to raise it up a level with the debut of his novel." --The Millions "An enchanting story of satirical wit, dark humor, and luminous creativity. . . . an exhilarating grand adventure of passion, obsession and lunacy." --The Literary Review "Outstanding . . . the descent into the heart of darkness at the very core of modernity." -- BOMB Magazine "In prose as sure as a poison-laced dart, Mark Haber takes the reader on a delirious journey to the heart of melancholy." --Sjón "Jacov Reinhardt and his faithful assistant roam South America in a quixotic search for the essence of melancholy--an enterprise that makes Werner Herzog's Fitzcarraldo, their rough contemporary, come off as a levelheaded pragmatist. To follow Reinhardt, fueled by amounts of cocaine not even Sigmund Freud could have managed, is to walk into a fascinating literary maze that spans from Ulrich Schmidl's chronicles to the decadent movements in turn-of-the-century Europe and Latin America. Melancholy has never felt more euphoric than in Mark Haber's breathless paragraph-long novel." --Hernan Diaz "An adventurous journey into the country of melancholy. A fascinating dissection of human vulnerability." --Guadalupe Nettel " Reinhardt's Garden is one of those perfect books that looks small and exotic and melancholic from the outside but, once in, is immense and exultant in the best possible way. Think Amulet by Roberto Bolaño, think Nightwood by Djuna Barnes, think Train Dreams by Denis Johnson, think Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys, think Zama by Antonio Di Benedetto, think The Loser by Thomas Bernhard. Think." --Rodrigo Fresán
