Kana would be a forgotten town somewhere in Thuringia if its remote desolation hadn't attracted neo-Nazis. The residents view it with fear and suspicion. Only Florian Herscht believes he has friends on both sides: a helpful muscle-bound man who fears tattoos and believes the universe is about to collapse into nothingness. To warn everyone of the supposed catastrophe, he writes letters to Mrs. Merkel, which go unanswered. Yet his innocence makes him clairvoyant, and only Bach's music can comfort him. Suddenly, wolves appear at the edge of the forest, and the apocalypse is indeed drawing closer. With great literary pull, László Krasznahorkai surprises with a novel full of disturbing contemporary German issues, infused with melancholic humor and abyssal sarcasm. It has been a long time since a protagonist has touched my heart as much as Florian Herscht. It’s cruel that one can never stop reading this book. I say this not out of envy, but as someone who has been gifted: László Krasznahorkai has written the contemporary German novel. This book is like the particle accelerator that Herscht fears so much. An unfathomable devil's tango!.
