“Malher’s Time” is a novel by one of the most vivid German-language writers of our time, the author of the famous “Magic of Berthold.” The main character of “Malher’s Time” is physicist David Malher, who discovers the true nature of time—and this discovery begins to influence his perception of the world, serving as the starting point for a chain of mysterious events. For Russian readers, the book may evoke unexpected associations with Strugatsky’s novel “One Billion Years Before the End of the World.”
