Book Description:

The first of Peter Handke s novels to be published in English, The Goalie s Anxiety at the Penalty Kick is a true modern classic that portrays the breakdown of a murderer in ways that recall Camus s The Stranger (Richard Locke, The New York Times). The self destruction of a soccer goalie turned construction worker who wanders aimlessly around a stifling Austrian border town after pursuing and then murdering, almost unthinkingly, a female movie cashier is mirrored by his use of direct, sometimes fractured prose that conveys at its best a seamless blend of lyricism and horror seen in the runes of a disintegrating world (Bill Marx, Boston Sunday Globe).
