      ab: The article analyzes Robert Musil'sThe Perfecting of a Loveas a literary attempt to create a cubist unification of time and space. Musil's concern with overcoming the Kantian conception of space and time, already crucial to his dissertation and his early poetological notes, finds poetic solutions in his novellas. Temporal and spatial inversion are reflected in the linguistic texture of the novella, and the experiences of the protagonist show how time and space are not a priori forms of intuition independent of our sensual apparatus.
