«Corrección» is the novel by Thomas Bernhard, published by Debate in paperback (294 pages, in Spanish).
After the death of his friend Roithamer, a narrator arrives at the house of the taxidermist Höller, where the deceased spent six years planning a cone in the Kobernauss forest for his sister. The novel weaves an obsessive process of creation and constant correction to reflect on dehumanization, lovelessness, and solitude.
The novel was originally published in 1975 under the title «Korrektur». This 1992 edition belongs to the Últimos Clásicos collection and includes a prologue by Miguel Sáenz.
For readers of literary fiction and philosophical narrative, especially those exploring twentieth-century Central European literature.
Nicolaas Thomas Bernhard was an Austrian novelist, playwright, poet and polemicist who is considered one of the most important German-language authors of the postwar era. He explored themes of death, isolation, obsession and illness in controversial literature that was pessimistic about the human condition and highly critical of post-war Austrian and European culture. He developed a distinctive prose style often featuring multiple perspectives on characters and events, idiosyncratic vocabulary and punctuation, and long monologues by protagonists on the verge of insanity.
