Keuner Stories Are Unfinalizable,
By doug anderson (willimantic, ct United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stories of Mr. Keuner (Paperback)
Bakhtin wrote that great literature was "unfinalizable," meaning that great writing continues to grow new meanings as it ages. This is certainly true of Brecht, and as we move into a new period of global repression, his writings increase in value. In The Stories of Mr. Keuner, Brecht speaks in the voice the common man, not the grand or grandiose hero. Keuner is witty, visionary, and intent on survival in a world that can crush him with a whim. These stories are short(paragraph length) and incisive. Carry them in your pocket. Put them on the back of the john. Keep them in your car for traffic jams. The Stories of Mr. Keuner are a survival guide for the coming storm.
