Die linkshändige Frau
Die linkshändige Frau: Erzählung | Peter Handke
7 posts | 5 read | 3 to read
Marianne, dreißig Jahre alt, und ihr achtjähriger Sohn Stefan warten auf die Rückkehr Brunos, des Mannes und Vaters, von einer mehrmonatigen Geschäftsreise. Als er zurück ist, erzählt Bruno von seinem Allein- und Fremdsein in Finnland, von seiner Angst und der daraus resultierenden Verbundenheit mit Marianne und Stefan »auf Leben und Tod. . . und das Seltsame ist, daß ich sogar ohne euch sein könnte, nachdem ich das erlebt habe«. Am Tag darauf beschließen beide, sich zu trennen. »Für immer?« fragt Bruno. Und nach und nach hören sie auf, die Tage zu zählen, die sie allein sind. Die neue Form des Daseins beginnt sie zu schützen und zu stärken.

I really liked the writing style. And also the peculiar way that people treat each other in the story.

The woman begins a process of getting stronger and more confident in her "loneliness" and this shows also in a lot of metaphores, which I like to interpret.

All in all it is a great book for a rainy afternoon at home. It is only 130 pages long.

Trashcanman I'm left handed too! Eat left handed! But I bat right handed and throw right handed. I fold clothes left handed. And I shoot rifles right handed. And I use left handed scissors. 6y
jenniferw88 @MirrorMask @Trashcanman I'm predominantly left-handed but can be ambidextrous when needed! 6y
MirrorMask @jenniferw88 @Trashcanman Deleted my comment. What I meant to say was that I've never met a leftie that isn't somewhat ambidextrous. 6y

There is something quite alluring and elusive about this novella. I read it twice in one weekend (maybe because NJ transit was a mess and the hour trip to my friends place took 4 hours). Composed of disconnected vignettes there is not much plot. The reader is held at a distance from the action and characters, only shown brief glimpses. The fascination lies in the effort to fill in the missing pieces. #1001books
