thegrimmreader 's review for:
Holzfällen
by Thomas Bernhard
The perfect little novel--entertaining, despite being "ranty" -- just plain fun to read.
You get to "know" the narrator and cannot help but identify with his wavering opinions of those he's observing.
What he is saying/writing is "talking" -in a way- to and with what is being said.
Perhaps this is a definition of stream of consciousness, but it's not really a stream-- in this case it's more like a dance, or a play, except it's all happening at the level of language and thought.
