Sasvim obične besmislice

Sasvim obične besmislice

Daniil Harms

Ignored and harassed by the authorities, surviving on the help of relatives and publishing children's rhymes, this ingenious marginal left behind a veritable treasure trove of strange stories and twisted thoughts in his notes and notebooks.

Absurdity, grotesqueness and paradox characterize his brilliant miniatures, with which he expressed his distance from the gloomy Stalinist and petty-bourgeois environment. Due to truly senseless accusations of counter-revolutionary activity, he was not allowed to publish his nonsense, so that as a proven class enemy he died tragically senselessly at the age of 37 in a Stalinist dungeon. With this book, in which most of the texts and illustrations are previously unpublished in our country, Šareni dućan proudly points to another exceptional and undeservedly insufficiently known author. Let us be allowed to end this line in a somewhat Harmsian way: he is so damn good that it is pointless to recommend him for reading.
