Herzog (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)

Sinopse

This multifaceted portrait of a modern-day hero is the of Moses Herzog, a great sufferer, joker, moaner, and charmer. Although his life steadily disintegrates around him--he has failed as a writer and teacher, as a father, and has lost the affection of his wife to his best friend--Herzog sees himself as a survivor, both of his private disasters and those of the age. He writes unsent letters to friends and enemies, colleagues and famous people, revealing his wry perceptions of the world and the innermost secrets of his heart.
