Franz Hohler is a well-known Swiss writer, playwright, and songwriter. A person critics call a classic, a national treasure, and a unique phenomenon in world literature.
His novel “The Knock” made an impression on European readers because it fulfilled all their expectations: here you’ll find an engaging—sometimes gripping—plot, as well as a genuinely life-like story.
But above all, it’s the outstanding style of presentation: a rich language, and an unforced intellectuality.
