Everything you need to understand or teach War and War.
War and War by László Krasznahorkai tells the story of Korin, a mentally unstable Hungarian archivist who travels from Europe to New York in an obsessive attempt to preserve a mysterious manuscript he believes reveals a profound truth about history and humanity. As the novel interweaves Korin’s increasingly desperate journey with the manuscript’s recurring tales of four enigmatic figures moving through different eras, it presents a bleak chronicle of the search for meaning and the apparent impossibility of peace or escape. It deals with themes of violence, journeys, and outsiders.
