The Legend of the Holy Drinker jellemzők
"It is both funny and magical... a poignant work" (Paris Voice)
Andreas is an alcoholic vagrant living under a bridge. As a man submerged at the very bottom of society, any change would be an improvement - but a run of exceptional good luck lifts him marvellously, briefly, onto a different plane of existence. This haunting novella, published after Roth's death in 1939, is an unforgettable testament to his wit and compassion.
"Good things come i small packages - that's certainly true of this gem of a book... magically told." (Daily Express)
"Roth's philosophical aculty is matched by his deep compassion for the frallty of the human condition." (Sunday Times)
"Roth, above all, is a consistently magnificent writer of prose." (Guardian)
"One of the great writers of this century." (The Times)
