{"product_id":"thomas-bernhard-thomas-bernhard-9780922233465","title":"Thomas Bernhard: 3 Days","description":"Over the course of three days in 1970, June 5, 6, and 7, simply sitting on a white bench in a Hamburg park, Thomas Bernhard delivered a powerful monologue for \u003ci\u003eThree Days\u003c\/i\u003e (\u003ci\u003eDrei Tage\u003c\/i\u003e), filmmaker Ferry Radax's commanding film portrait of the great Austrian writer. Radax interwove the monologue with a variety of metaphorically resonant visual techniques--blacking out the screen to total darkness, suggestive of the closing of the observing eye; cuts to scenes of cameramen, lighting and recording equipment; extreme camera distance and extreme closeup. Bernhard had not yet written his autobiographical work \u003ci\u003eGathering Evidence\u003c\/i\u003e, published originally in five separate volumes between 1975 and 1982, and his childhood remembrances were a revelation. This publication of Bernhard's monologue and stills from Radax's artful film allows this unique portrait of Bernhard to be savored in book form.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Bernhard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0922233462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780922233465\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Blast Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Thomas Bernhard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43994028179711,"sku":"9780922233465","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90c9cf4c-e290-47b7-a427-8cda20d02583.jpg?v=1683327701","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thomas-bernhard-thomas-bernhard-9780922233465","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
