Roithamer has committed suicide having been driven to madness by his own frightening powers of pure thought. This work talks about the gradual breakdown of a genius ceaselessly compelled to correct and refine his perceptions until the only logical conclusion of the negation of his own soul.

Born in 1931, the illegitimate child of an abandoned mother, Thomas Bernhard was brought up by an eccentric grandmother and adored grandfather. He ran away from home at 15 and at 18, was put in a hospital ward for the old and terminally ill when he caught pneumonia. This volume tells his story.

Bringing together Thomas Bernhard's second and third books of poetry, this collection contains short, untitled lyrics presenting his early explorations of themes that would continue to preoccupy him in his novels, plays, and other writings - especially his intense ambivalence toward the land and people of Austria and their then-recent Nazi past.

Revolves around a self-centred, self-styled genius loosely patterned on Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. Over the course of a day, he looks forward to receiving an honorary degree, while reflecting on his life and engaging in dysfunctional banter. This title aims to give a moving portrait of simple human frailty.
