Description
"Short Letter, Long Farewell" by Peter Handke is a meditative road novel that follows a young Austrian man as he travels across the United States in search of his estranged wife. Fueled by emotional unrest and a desire for closure, his journey becomes both a literal and psychological quest through unfamiliar landscapes and inner confusion. Along the way, he encounters American culture with a mix of fascination and alienation, and ultimately meets filmmaker John Ford, whose presence serves as a symbolic turning point. With lyrical prose and a cool, detached tone, Short Letter, Long Farewell explores themes of identity, disconnection, and the haunting effects of personal loss, all set against the backdrop of a vast, foreign land.
