Humor and Satire

Otkrića u kadi

Gabriel Laub

The book is ideal for fans of short form, humor, and satirical prose (similar in style to some works by Chekhov, Kiszczynski, or other Central European satirists).

Laub writes short, witty, and sharp satires that deal with everyday life, human weaknesses, social conventions, and the absurdity of modern existence. The title "Discoveries in the Bathtub" symbolizes a relaxed, intimate moment (in the bathtub) when one can freely think and "discover" truths about the world around them – often in an ironic and sarcastic manner.
