Charlotte Gray has provided a comprehensive introduction to the works of this versatile man of letters, who enjoys a reputation not only as a novelist and poet but as a critic, playwright, journalist, and editor. She discusses Rifbjerg's place both in the contemporary Danish literary scene and in modern letters. Offering a thorough analysis of each work, she traces Rifbjerg's development chronologically and in terms of his contributions to various genres--particularly modernist poetry and psychological fiction--and points out the underlying unity of his work within these different forms. The author's generous use of quotations and her sensitive commentary give a keen impression of Rifbjerg's style and central concerns and convey his sense of the comic and tragic dimensions of modern existence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greenwood Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45084729671831,"sku":"9780313250989","price":7640.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780313250989.webp?v=1767264720","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/klaus-rifbjerg-9780313250989","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
