I Is Another: Septology III-V - Jon Fosse

Descriere I Is Another: Septology III-V - Jon Fosse

\n \nFosse's portrait of intersecting lives is that rare metaphysical novel that readers will find compulsively readable.--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review\n \ni>I is Another follows the lives of two men living close to each other on the west coast of Norway. The year is coming to a close and Asle, an aging painter and widower, is reminiscing about his life. He lives alone, his only friends being his neighbor, sleik, a bachelor and traditional Norwegian fisherman-farmer, and Beyer, a gallerist who lives in Bj rgvin, a couple hours' drive south of Dylgja, where he lives. There, in Bj rgvin, lives another Asle, also a painter. He and the narrator are doppelgangers--two versions of the same person, two versions of the same life. I is Another calls into question concrete notions around subjectivity and the self. What makes us who we are? And why do we lead one life and not another?\n
