Korrektur
A reclusive scholar, obsessed with the memory of his deceased sister, recounts the story of her life and the elaborate, conical house he designed for her. He believes his architectural 'correction' led to her death, and now he attempts to correct his own understanding through a relentless, spiraling monologue. This intense novel explores themes of genius, madness, and the destructive nature of perfection.
