Blaugast

Literature

Blaugast by Paul Leppin  is the story of ruin. A bored clerk, Klaudius Blaugast, pursues his desires down a path spiralling into complete degradation. Homeless and destitute, having lost everything to the evil prostitute Wanda, he seeks redemption in a Prague that has become alien to him. Flashbacks to incidents in his past, hallucinatory revelations of the meaning of events long forgotten, point to the seeds of his eventual downfall.
