Praise for Gert Hofmann and The Parable of the Blind "One of the great novelists of the second half of the twentieth century."--Gabriel Josipvici, Times Literary Supplement "The most singular writer to come out of Germany since Heinrich Böll."--The Times (London) "One of Germany's most respected postwar authors."--Publishers Weekly "The Parable of the Blind offers sly, striking contemporary commentary on the precariousness of language and facts, and, in particular, on the need to negotiate unstable ground--literally, but also socially and politically--afresh each day."--The New Yorker
