About this book

Arrested at the Swiss border, a man insists, ‘I’m not Stiller.’ Over seven notebooks he tries to prove he is not the missing sculptor everyone recognises, confessing instead to improbable murders and recounting adventures in Mexico and the United States. Wife, friends and authorities refuse his alternative identity. Max Frisch’s major novel uses the unreliable notebook to examine self-invention, responsibility and the impossibility of escaping the person others remember. Originally written in German as “stiller”, the work appears here in an Arabic translation by Samir Grees.
