Annotation

"Finally, this day has come!" - this was the reaction of Elfriede Jellinek, after the decision of the Swedish Academy became known, according to which Peter Handke was awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature.

Handke is an observer and not an ambush observer, he is a describer and not an evaluator: an incomparably sharp observer and a surprisingly eloquent describer. He himself says that in the work of a real artist, a person should be able to recognize the river of life, and he will be able to create such a work only if he undergoes metamorphosis at least three or four times in his life, and copes with this sometimes very painful ordeal.

The main character of Handke's long story "A short letter, a long goodbye" is a seeker who wants to know the world and himself, because the desired truths are hidden from him. He runs away from Austria, from his traumatized childhood, from the huge and unbearable void left by his mother's suicide, and begins an adventurous American journey, which is actually an attempt to escape from himself and at the same time a hidden search for himself. Behind every episode described by the narrator - as if behind the scenes - completely different, deeper existential problems are hidden, and many details clearly point to individual moments from the writer's autobiography.
