DESCRIPTION

Juxtaposing reality and fantasy, nightmares and dark laughter, this title presents a collection of largely autobiographical stories based on Herta Muller's childhood in the Romanian countryside.
Juxtaposing reality and fantasy, nightmares and dark laughter, Nadirs is a collection of largely autobiographical stories based on Herta Müller’s childhood in the Romanian countryside. The individual tales reveal a child’s often nightmarish impressions of life in her village. Seamlessly mixing reality with dream-like images, they brilliantly convey the inner, troubled life of a child and, at the same time, capture the violence and corruption of life under an oppressive state.
