The Discovery Of Slowness

Sten Nadolny is the author of four novels and two collections of essays. `The Discovery of Slowness` (1983) is regarded as his masterpiece. It has been translated into all major languages and has sold over one million copies worldwide, and was nominated for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize. Nadolny`s masterpiece, `The Discovery of Slowness` tells the incredible story of Sir John Franklin, a sailor and explorer who battled the frozen Arctic wastes and paved the way for the discovery of the Northwest Passage. Ridiculed for his slowness in his youth, Franklin`s quiet calm later helps him to become an icon of adventure. A classic of contemporary German literature, `The Discovery of Slowness` is not only a riveting account of a remarkable life but also a profound and thought-provoking meditation on time.
