Das Abenteuerliche Herz - Sizilischer Brief an den Mann im Mond

More about the book

2nd ed. A collection of short essays, slightly poetic prose. Uncanny musings, somewhat surrealistic, with accurate perceptions of psychological and sensory experiences with, or sometimes philosophical musings over color, smells, bugs, plants, anxiety, existence, culture, and more. The last I heard, only 2 of the sixty some (I think) 'essays' have been translated into English. As someone else once put it, this is something like a "hidden gem." Personally, I haven't yet read anything quite like it.
