In this exuberantly satirical novel, the tutor Atzbacher has beensummoned by his friend Reger to meet him in a Viennese museum. WhileReger gazes at a Tintoretto portrait, Atzbacher who fears Reger'splans to kill himself gives us a portrait of the musicologist: hiswisdom, his devotion to his wife, and his love-hate relationship withart. With characteristically acerbic wit, Bernhard exposes thepretensions and aspirations of humanity in a novel at once pessimisticand strangely exhilarating. 'Bernhard's […] most enjoyable novel. ' Robert Craft, 'New York ''Review of Books. ' 'Bernhard is one of the masters of contemporary European fiction. ' George Steiner'
