The Tanners by Robert Walser

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I wrote a longer, more personal and detailed review you may read here, if interested: http://hub.me/aeMjf

For the naysayers in our midst, the esteemed readers of so much other fiction to be themselves thought of in the highest esteem here because of their thoughtful and intelligent reviews but nonetheless discounters of the writings of Robert Walser based on previous books they read such as The Selected Stories and Jakob von Gunten, please note that these two books were translated by a man person by the name of Middleton and in no way should the other works by Walser that others of us love such as The Assistant, The Robber, and The Tanners be tarnished because, truth be told, these beloved three gems all were translated by an enormously talented lady by the name of Susan Bernofsky. She is the brightest star in the galaxy of German translations. Enough cannot be said in regards to the talent of Susan Bernofsky. She makes everyone better, reader or writer, male or female, and never disappoints.
