Summary
Thomas Bernhard: Disorder
Disorder is the second novel by Thomas Bernhard. When it was published in 1967, it immediately made Bernhard famous as a writer. At the time, many compared him to Kafka and Beckett, because in his work he hints at a mystical element of experience that calls for a symbolic interpretation: the hidden meaning of states that are close to the world of surreal dreams. The novel is divided into two parts, and if the focus of the first part is on the depiction of the external world and its influence on people, the second part shifts the focus to the depths of the inner world of man.
