Dubravka Ugresic 
Lend Me Your Character [EPUB ebook] 

Support

From the author of Baba Yaga Laid an Egg and Thank You for Not Reading

From the story of Steffie Cvek to ‚The Kharms Case, ‚ the pieces in Dubravka Ugresic’s collection Lend Me Your Character are always smart and endlessly entertaining. The former story paints a picture of a harassed and vulnerable typist whose life is shaped entirely by cliches. She searches endlessly for an elusive romantic love in a narrative punctuated by threadbare advice from women’s magazines and constructed like a sewing pattern. The latter story is one of Ugresic’s funniest and is about the strained relationship between a persistent translator and an unresponsive publisher. The stories collected in Lend Me Your Character, the novella ‚Steffie Cvek in the Jaws of Life, ‚ and a collection of short stories entitled ‚Life Is a Fairy Tale‘ solidify Ugresic’s reputation as one of Eastern Europe’s most playful and inventive writers.’
