Description
"Little Snow Landscape and Other Stories opens in 1905 with an encomium by the twenty-six- year-old Swiss author Robert Walser (1878-1956) to his Heimat and concludes in 1933 with a meditation on his childhood in Biel, the town of his birth, published in the last of his four years in the cantonal mental hospital in Waldau outside Bern. Between these two poles, the book maps Walser's outer and inner wanderings in various narrative modes, including essaylets, fables, idylls, tales of comedy and horror, monologues, travelogues, prose pieces realistic and of an otherworldly artificiality"--
