Mittellage by William H. Gass

A mordant, lyrical novel follows an émigré composer who settles in the United States as a music professor, tracing his memories, humiliations, romantic failures, and escalating resentments as he meditates on art, language, and moral responsibility; intimate narrative, philosophical digressions, and darkly comic episodes build toward a shattering personal reckoning that forces him to confront the gap between aesthetic ambition and ethical consequence.
