Gerrit Wustmann: Nothing about it is funny

An official wants to check whether a person exists - and has forms with fatal consequences in his luggage. A widower receives a visit from his dead previous tenant. A hypochondriac finds a cure for eternal health - but there's a nasty catch. A little girl has a new imaginary friend... with murderous intentions. A man hears a mysterious knocking sound over and over again, slowly driving him crazy. And a homicide detective gets lost in the middle of a terribly bad crime script.

 

Ten stories full of deep black humor, populated by desperate people, losers and other ghosts. In his first story collection, Gerrit Wustmann uses all genres and turns the inside out. The perfect read for long, dark autumn evenings. Or for all those who wait for the train on closed routes.

Reviews:

The blurb promises “the perfect read for long, dark autumn evenings. Or for all those who are waiting for the train on disused routes.” But actually it is already too late, because you are already in the middle of these stories, which usually develop an irresistible pull and cleverly draw the reader into something that is obscure in many ways , inexplicable events and their inevitable progression to an ominous end. more
