One day, as Hermann Hermann strolls the streets of Prague, he discovers a man who he believes to be his exact doppelgänger. What starts out for Herman as a case of harmless, though particularly eccentric narcissism quickly becomes dark and obsessive. One of the best earlier Eurocentric works from the creator of Lolita, a svelte and easily digested comic-thriller about violence, death and delusion.
