Description
Andrei Tarkovsky's film Stalker has been indelibly etched in the memory of British novelist and essayist Geoff Dyer since he first saw it nearly thirty years ago. In his new book, Dyer, known for his genre-defying texts, offers a quirky reflection on this pinnacle of world cinema, which gradually evolves into an original contemplation of broader questions regarding the relationship between life and art. The Zone is a striking example of Dyer's ability for insightful perspectives, precise observation, and his unmistakable authorial voice, which delights in shifting tones, connecting the incongruous, and taking various detours. Undoubtedly, it is one of the most original and humorous books on the subject of film and art in general.
