COUNT LUNA - ALEXANDER LERNET-HOLENIA KARTONIER...

'A book so astonishing that I immediately reread it  fearful it might disappear' Patti Smith  
The war is over but Alexander Jessiersky  a wealthy Austrian aristocrat and industrialist  is
haunted by guilt over the neighbour he inadvertently sent to a concentration camp  Count Luna.
What's more  he is convinced that Luna survived - and is out to get his revenge. So begins a
wild  weird cat-and-mouse chase that takes him and his shadowy nemesis through windswept
valleys  eerie houses and  eventually  Rome's catacombs  as an increasingly paranoid Jessiersky
asks himself: will Luna stop at nothing to exact his bloody vengeance? Crazed  raging and
darkly comic  Count Luna is a reckoning with postwar guilt  and an irresistible tale of the
uncanny.  'Like Kafka ... Lernet-Holenia weaves his most intimate hopes and dreams ... with
exquisitely imagined detail' Chicago Tribune
