Mýcení : rozčilení

Novel by Thomas Bernhard

Blurb

Woodcutters is a novel by Thomas Bernhard, also published in 1985 in another English translation under the title Cutting Timber: An Irritation, and originally published in German in 1984.
Second in a trilogy covering the Arts, this one relates to the theatre and created quite an uproar in Austria, where it was banned as some Viennese personalities recognised themselves in the story. Nonetheless, it still sold very well in its own country and became a bestseller abroad.
In his Western Canon of 1994, American literary critic Harold Bloom lists Woodcutters as Bernhard’s masterpiece.
