Description
After his "diary" from concentration camps, Pavel Taussig introduces himself to readers as a short story author. His domain is primarily irony and satire. With these weapons, he effectively, yet cultured and intelligently, takes aim at various -isms of the schizophrenic era of Czech and Slovak history, whose contradictions, absurd glorifications, mistaken ideologies, and nonsense generally lay behind the origin of many incomprehensible situations. The stories are so authentic and credible that not only the contemporaries cannot doubt their real essence. They are as absurd as the era from which they emerged. ***** Pavel Taussig's literary humoresques, originally published in 1985 by the most prestigious exile publisher 68 Publishers, are colorful stories narrated with aphoristic precision and interwoven with irony and sarcasm.
