With one foot in the romanticism of Goethe or Kleist, and another in the wildly differing takes on the modern novel provided by Aldous Huxley, James Joyce, and Marcel Proust, respectively, "Waltz" is an occasionally absurd comedy of indecision and indolence structured in imitation of the dance from which it takes its title.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: FictionBook Series: Catalan LiteratureTopic: Classic FictionItem Width: 20mmRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
