«Die Welt en gros en détail» is Claudio Magris's travel essay, published by DTV Deutscher Taschenbuch in paperback (334 pages, in German).
Claudio Magris turns corners of Europe, from a Trieste café to lagoons, forests and borders, into microcosms peopled by real and imaginary characters, animals, gestures and memories. History, travel and memory intertwine to speak of identity, time, love and crossing limits, with death in the background.
German translation by Ragni Maria Gschwend of the original Italian work «Microcosmi», published in 1997. «Microcosmi» was awarded the Strega Prize and the Leipzig Book Award 2001.
For readers of travel literature and essays who appreciate reflections on identity, memory and borders.
Claudio Magris is an Italian scholar, translator and writer. He was a senator for Friuli-Venezia Giulia from 1994 to 1996.
