Zaubermärchen

A collection of short, fantastical and satirical tales that recast myth, legend, and contemporary life through grotesque humor and irony. Several stories parody classical figures and episodes, following mythic characters into absurd misadventures that expose artistic vanity and civic indifference. Other pieces shift to modern scenes in which bureaucratic cruelty, social snobbery, and violent absurdities intrude, often rendered in sharp, surreal imagery. The work is episodic and formally varied, moving between mock‑epic tableaux and concise fables while maintaining a caustic, lyrically inventive voice that blends imagination with social critique.
