Peter Handke’s novel Repetition poses a question that is a painful one for the author: the identity of the Slovenians living in the region of Carinthia in Austria. He creates a hero who is incapable of overcoming the feeling of self-hate that has been inculcated in him.
Slovenians represent a community with a fundamental sense of righteousness, but in orderto preserve it they have to be subjected, excluded from history. Handke fights to keep the state of things unchanged, although he realises how unfair is it.
