| Experience the mind-bending genius of Robert Walser, a master of modern literature, in this captivating collection of short stories. In her preface to Selected Stories, Susan Sontag describes Walser as "a good-humored, sweet Beckett," while others compare him to "a comic Kafka." These formulations perfectly capture the unique reading experience of Walser's works: a delightful blend of wit, charm, and unsettling brilliance. Revered by literary giants such as Walter Benjamin, Hermann Hesse, and W. G. Sebald, Walser shines brightest in the realm of short fiction. As J. M. Coetzee notes in The New York Review of Books, these stories "show him at his dazzling best." Selected Stories showcases the full range of Walser's talent, treating readers to a delightful mix of humor, insight, and literary artistry. Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of one of the twentieth century's most original and influential writers. |
