A complete reprint of Peter Handke’s 1986 novel Repetition (Die Wiederholung). “In Repetition, Handke allows the peculiar light which illuminates the space under a leafy canopy or a tent canvas to glisten  between words, placed here with astounding  caution and precision; in doing so, he succeeds in making the text into a sort of  refuge amid the arid lands which, even in the culture industry, grow larger day by day.” —W. G. Sebald, “Across the Border”
