«Die Taube» is the short novel by Patrick Süskind, published by Diogenes in paperback (99 pages, in German).
Jonathan Noel is a bank guard in Paris and his life unfolds in a protected routine: work, order and an attic flat that will soon be his. On a hot Friday in August 1984, the appearance of a pigeon at his door shatters that balance. Süskind explores solitude, fear of change and everyday chaos.
Originally published in 1987, this German edition appeared in 1990 in the Diogenes-Taschenbuch series (no. 21846).
For readers of contemporary German fiction who appreciate short novels with restrained atmosphere and psychological analysis.
Patrick Süskind is a German writer and screenwriter, known best for his novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, first published in 1985.
