몰락하는 자

The portrayal of obsession feels so visceral and consuming. I'm curious whether Bernhard drew from personal experiences or was intentionally exploring this obsession as a universal theme.

The repetitive, almost monologue-like style creates a hypnotic effect but also made me uneasy. Was this tension intentional to mirror the narrator's mental state?

The fragmented, looping chapters gave a sense of spiraling thoughts. I wonder if Bernhard planned this structure from the start or if it evolved during writing.
