Walking features heavily in his writing, but nowhere else is it as elegantly considered. Without walking, \"I would be dead,\" Walser explains, \"and my profession, which I love passionately, would be destroyed. Because it is on walks that the lore of nature and the lore of the country are revealed, charming and graceful, to the sense and eyes of the observant walker.\" \u003cem\u003eThe Walk\u003c\/em\u003e was the first piece of Walser's work to appear in English, and the only one translated before his death. However, Walser heavily revised his most famous novella, altering nearly every sentence, rendering the baroque tone of his tale into something more spare. An introduction by translator Susan Bernofsky explains the history of \u003cem\u003eThe Walk\u003c\/em\u003e, and the differences between its two versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 96\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 6.8 x 4.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 23, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47228916531449,"sku":"9780811219921","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/yTM-fcCvmo9780811219921.webp?v=1768296619","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-walk-paperback-3","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
