Description

On a single, feverish night in Vienna, a musicologist lies awake, his mind a kaleidoscope of memories and reflections. As an unspecified illness takes hold, he embarks on a profound journey through his past, tracing a lifelong obsession with the East and its intricate relationship with the West. This novel masterfully explores the porous boundaries between cultures, the nature of identity, and the enduring power of love and longing. Through a tapestry of erudition and personal history, it delves into the space between self and other, questioning the divisions we create and the connections that truly define us.
