War & War by Laszlo Krasznahorkai [Paperback]

War & War follows György Korin, a lonely and mentally fragile archivist who discovers a mysterious manuscript hidden in an archive. Convinced that the manuscript contains a profound truth about humanity, history, and survival, he travels to New York City to publish it on the internet before taking his own life. As Korin obsessively transcribes the text, the novel weaves together stories spanning different eras and locations, exploring violence, chaos, exile, transcendence, and humanity's search for meaning in a seemingly collapsing world.
