Der Mensch erscheint im Holozän

A stunning tour de force, Mensch erscheint im Holozän constructs a powerful vision of our place in the world by combining the banality of an aging man's lonely inner life and the objective facts he finds in the books of his isolated home. As a rainstorm rages outside, Max Frisch's protagonist, Geiser, watches the mountain landscape crumble beneath landslides and flooding, and speculates that the town will be wiped out by the collapse of a section of the mountain. Seeking refuge from the storm in town, he makes his way through a difficult and dangerous mountain pass, only to abandon his original plan and return home. A compelling meditation by one of Frisch's most original characters, Mensch erscheint im Holozän charts Geiser's desperate attempt to find his place in history and in the confusing and fragile world outside his window.
