hidden truth

 Ah, if only the hidden truth would prevail.  If only it could become all-powerful.  Seize power on earth. . . .  But as the prevailing force would it not lose the element of secretiveness on which its strength depends?

Handke made clear early on no mysticism, no exaltations.  But now late in career he wants the fruit thief to admit to her mystical yearnings and revelations but cannot quite do it.  Like Burke's agnosticism.  

"I was crisscrossing one landscape or another, which was nothing but a silent howl at being at a complete loss."
