<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Set in 1960, Nobel Prize winner Peter Handke's <i>Repetition </i>tells of Filib Kobal's journey from his home in Carinthia to Slovenia on the trail of his missing brother, Gregor. He is armed only with two of Gregor's books: a copy book from agricultural school, and a Slovenian - German dictionary, in which Gregor has marked certain words. The resulting investigation of the laws of language and naming becomes a transformative investigation of himself and the world around him. <p/>Handke's eminence, displayed in a substantial oeuvre of plays, novels and poems, is reaffirmed brilliantly by [<i>Repetition</i>]. - <i>Publishers Weekly</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Handke's eminence, displayed in a substantial oeuvre of plays, novels and poems, is reaffirmed brilliantly by [<i>Repetition</i>]. - <i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>The book spans the early years through his teens and is told in a manner backgrounded throughout by a definite yet modest poetic glow, a glow akin to that we might ordinarily associate with folk and fairy tales. - <i>Drunken Boat </i></p><br>
