If it's a biographical novel or not remains to be seen, but I guess many people can relate. Even if we're not suffering from amnesia, Max Frisch gives us enough vivid pictures to image how it feels like. That we're right in Geiser's mind makes it even more comprehensible and intense. How Frisch built this man's mind with pictures taken from ancient times, mother nature and a dictionary is tremendous.
