Welcome to the Cafe with No Nmae
Within these pages I sat in the Café with No Name and watched as life unfolded for Robert Simon, the proprietor, while also catching a glimpse at the daily lives of the friends and customers who came through the door. A simple but beautifully written story by the Austrian author, Robert Seethaler, it has no plot but rather is a snapshot of a small community of people in the Vienna of the 1960s-1970s. Masterfully translated from the German novel, this book does an eloquent job conveying the emotional highs and lows of the characters. 4.5 stars
