Suddenly, a Knock on the Door

內容簡介

內容簡介 A dark and surreal collection of stories from the author of The Nimrod Flipout and The Girl on the Fridge. With Suddenly, a Knock on the Door, "It's tempting to say," according to Jonathan Safran Foer, "[these stories] are his most Kafkaesque, but in fact they are his most Keretesque."Bringing up a child, lying to the boss, placing an order in a fast-food restaurant: in Etgar Keret's short story collection, daily life is complicated, dangerous, and full of yearning. In his most playful and most mature work yet, the living and the dead, silent children and talking animals, dreams and waking life coexist in an uneasy world. Overflowing with absurdity, humor, sadness, and compassion, the tales in Suddenly, a Knock on the Door establish Etgar Keret--declared a "genius" by The New York Times--as one of the most original writers of his generation.
