It is set in 1979 and tells the story of a homosexual young man who travels to Tehran with his ex-boyfriend at the time of the Iranian Revolution, where his co-traveller dies during a drug binge. He is then convinced to travel to Tibet to climb the sacred Mount Kailash, only to be captured by the Chinese army. The man is largely unaffected by the political events around him and pays more attention to art, music, food and furnishings. The original book cover was designed by Peter Saville, known for his record sleeves for artists associated with Factory Records. ReceptionElke Heidenreich of Der Spiegel wrote: "It is a laconic novel about the lack of sense, of global ideas, it is the likewise laconic statement that you can do anything to a man, even subdue him to inhuman totalitarianism, because he has no capability for resistance whatsoever." The critic continued: "1979 is a novel about decadence — the decadence of western consumption and eastern doctrines of salvation, the decadence of prison camps and the decadence of drug parties, 'and suddenly, at once, I saw myself in my full disgracefulness'."[1]TranslationsThe novel has been translated into Bulgarian, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, French, Hebrew, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish and Swedish AdaptationSince 2004 a stage version of the novel, directed by Matthias Hartmann, has been performed in theatres in Zurich, Bochum, Hannover and Vienna.[2] References1. ^{{Cite journal|last=Heidenreich|first=Elke|authorlink=Elke Heidenreich|date=2001-10-08|url=http://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/print/d-20289393.html|title=Autoren: Nichts wird je wieder gut|language=German|work=Der Spiegel|issue=41/2001|accessdate=2015-03-12|quote=Es ist ein lakonischer Roman über den Mangel an Sinn, an weltumspannenden Ideen, es ist die ebenso lakonische Feststellung, dass man mit dem Menschen alles machen kann, ihn sogar unmenschlichem Totalitarismus unterwerfen, weil er geistig zu einem Widerstand überhaupt nicht in der Lage ist." "1979 ist ein Roman über Dekadenz - die Dekadenz westlichen Konsums und östlicher Heilslehren, die Dekadenz der Lager und die Dekadenz der Drogenpartys, 'und plötzlich, auf einmal, sah ich auch mich in meiner ganzen widerlichen Erbärmlichkeit'.}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.burgtheater.at/Content.Node2/home/spielplan/event_detailansicht.at.php?eventid=1043514|title=1979|language=German|work=burgtheater.at|publisher=Burgtheater|accessdate=2015-03-12|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402090033/http://www.burgtheater.at/Content.Node2/home/spielplan/event_detailansicht.at.php?eventid=1043514|archive-date=2015-04-02|dead-url=yes|df=}} External links
