The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick
Book (italiano):
<div><div>The first of Peter Handke's novels to be published in English, <i>The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick </i>is a true modern classic that “portrays the…breakdown of a murderer in ways that recall Camus's <i>The Stranger</i>” (Richard Locke, <i>The New York Times). </i>The self-destruction of a soccer goalie turned construction worker who wanders aimlessly around a stifling Austrian border town after pursuing and then murdering, almost unthinkingly, a female movie cashier is mirrored by his use of direct, sometimes fractured prose that conveys “at its best a seamless blend of lyricism and horror seen in the runes of a disintegrating world” (Bill Marx, <i>Boston Sunday Globe). </i></div></div>
