The Fabric of Night

By one of the most promising novelists in Germany today The Fabric of Night is a frightening profound reflection on the nature of illusion and reality.Albin Kranz is a sculptor haunted by hallucinations and by painful memories of his childhood. At her wits end Livia a photographer with whom he has lived for five years suggests that they go to Istanbul to give there love one last chance. There he witnesses a murder. But like one of Hitchcocks desperately misunderstood characters Albin cant persuade anyone of what he saw nor find any proof. His quest for truth takes him into the slums of the city and deep into the mysterious exotic Eastern culture few Western visitors ever penetrate. The Fabric of Night is a psychological drama a nightmare and a double tale of disintegrating love.
