Graz by Bart Moeyaert

Graz: a novella;

Bart Moeyaert’s was sparked by a repeat visit to the Austrian city at the invitation of the Graz Literary House, in a hotel room with a view. He projects himself in the fictitious figure of Herman Eichler, the business manager of “Zum guten Hirten” pharmacy opposite the hotel. The man is unmarried, stable, orderly and precise, a model of reliability.
