Summary
Urs Widmer: Swiss stories
Zürich • Solothurn • Appenzell • Aargau • Bern • Graubünden • Basel • Zug • Valais • Ticino • Friborg • Vaud • Neuchâtel
With one fat woman and one pilot, the narrator floats in a balloon over Switzerland and descends in various cantons. It tells about Swiss family life, about inns, brawlers, railwaymen, skiers, lovers...
"With a critically distanced view, Widmer condenses events and moods into his thirteen pictures of the canton, which are both scurrilous, fantastic and twisted as well as realistic and, it must be admitted, close to the mentality."
Der Bund, Bern
"An absurd panorama of Swiss perversions and a very poetic statement of love to a utopian Switzerland".
Zitty, Berlin
"Urs Widmer translated the normal into the surreal, and took longing literally - that's how he became one of the great storytellers of his country."
Josef Hanimann, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Munich
