The Secret Heart of the Clock: Notes, Aphorisms, Fragments, 1973-1985
Elias Canetti
From one of the preeminent intellectual figures of the twentieth century, a highly personal testimonial of what Canetti himself chooses to term "notations," bits and pieces: notes, aphorisms, fragments. Taken together, they present an awesomely tender, guiltily gloomy meditation on death and aging.
