In this new book, Walker Zupp demonstrates the need to reevaluate the connection between Ludwig Wittgensteins philosophy and the extraordinary life that he led, and how the best way to do this, ironically, is by examining novels whose central characters were inspired by Ludwig Wittgensteins persona. In Wittgenstein Fiction, Zupp offers comprehensive biographical cross-sections of novels by Thomas Bernhard, Bruce Duffy and Lars Iyer in an attempt to define the genre of Wittgenstein Fiction for the very first time.
