Summary
Nicholson Baker: The Matchbox
Meet Emmett. he is forty-four years old, happily married to Claire, has two children, a cat and a duck as pets, works as an editor of medical textbooks. In order to think about life, Emmett introduced a new habit into his routine this January: he wakes up around four o'clock every morning to enjoy that early morning state of consciousness and think: about a recent trip to a nearby place, about how he met his wife, about the habits of his duck. In this unusual stream-of-consciousness novel, everything is said, seemingly nothing happens, and the significance of the insignificant is precisely what interests Baker. The trivialities that make up life are exactly what should be appreciated in order to enjoy it. The Matchbox, the sixth novel by multi-award winning author Nicholson Baker, reveals his best face. Baker is witty, and his sharp observations easily reveal life's truths that lie beneath the surface of everyday life. All in all, it should not be surprising that he was chosen by Zlatko Crnković. The Croatian translation of this little literary gem is signed by Gordana V. Popović, and the illustration on the cover is by Nenad Martić.
