Question
At the end of a novel by an author with this surname, a woman playing the Wanderer Fantasy on an imaginary piano is interrupted by her husband, who was presumed dead in a sailing accident. The non-Japanese novella Runaway Horse was written by an author with this surname who was accused of antisemitism for lambasting the critic Marcel Reich-Ranicki (“rike rah-NIT-skee”) in the novel Death of a Critic. A protagonist created by an author with this surname is disappointed by the “inner chambers” of a brother and sister after being made to clean a goldfish tank with the straight-laced (*) Kraus. A novel by an author with this surname ends after the protagonist decides to leave with the principal of the Benjamenta (“ben-yuh-MEN-tuh”) Institute. That author with this surname produced numerous “microscripts” while in the Waldau (“VAWL-dow”) sanatorium. For 10 points, give this surname of the Swiss author of the novel Jakob von Gunten. ■END■
