Herinneringen Van Een Engelbewaarder by W.F. Hermans

A sardonic first-person account in which a self-proclaimed guardian angel recounts memories of human lives, using dark humor and sharp observation to expose hypocrisy, moral ambiguity and existential loneliness; through concise anecdotes and reflections the narrator probes guilt, loss and the limits of compassion while undermining grand narratives and revealing the absurdity of human pride.
