Jakob von Gunten
by Robert Walser
Translated and with an introduction by Christopher Middleton
Jakob von Gunten is the story of a seventeen-year-old runaway from an old family who enrolls in a school for servants. The Institute is a deeply mysterious place: the faculty lies asleep in a single room; the students, though subject to fierce discipline, come and go at will. And in the end, as the Institute itself dissolves around him like a dream, he steps out boldly to explore still-unimagined worlds.
