Tage und Werke

The book "Days and Works" by Peter Handke is a collection of essays that delve deeply into literature and writing. Handke, who celebrated his professional anniversary in 2013, reflects on his experiences as a writer and reader in these texts. He illuminates the interplay between reading and writing, demonstrating how these two activities are inseparably linked. The essays are not only companion pieces to other authors and their works but often evolve into their own narratives. Handke's style is characterized by a profound appreciation for literature and its beauty, which he captures in his observations and stories. This book is an invitation to rediscover and appreciate the world of books and the significance of reading.
