I write literature in German that fuses realism with the fantastique: isolated protagonists caught in bizarre predicaments and incomprehensible bureaucratic powers. The Metamorphosis, The Trial and The Castle are my major works.
I use a German construction — subordinate clauses that push the verb to the end — to build long sentences that deliver their impact just before the full stop. It is a literary craft that makes my work hard to translate.
My literature combines exact, realistic detail with absurdity. I examine small, inconspicuous details with such precision that unforeseen things surface — strange, yet absolutely true.
