A perfect display on how to shatter the narrator’s voice:
“Nahman's stories are not always to be believed - even less so when he writes them down. He has a propensity for exaggeration (…) What happens is never quite enough for Nahman - he wants what happens also to have some heavenly, definitive meaning. (…) This is why he slumps so often into melancholy - has he not mentioned that himself?”
