Description:This collection of stories, mostly interlinked and largely autobiographical, chart the descent of the narrator from the onset of neurosis to final incarceration in a Swiss clinic. The sense of paranoia, of persecution by a foe or force that is never given a name, evokes The Trial by Kafka, a writer with whom Kavan is often compared, although her deeply personal, restrained and almost foreign-accented style has no true model. The same characters who recur throughout - the protaganist's unhelpful 'adviser', the friend/lover who abandons her at the clinic and an assortment of deluded companions - are sketched without a trace of the rage, self-pity or sentiment that have marked more recent accounts of mental instability.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
