Abstract
As well as I can make out, this is a collection of nonsense pieces. Some may approach being fables. I tried a number of shorter ones. In Glück gehabt (27) a man fell out of a bus right in front a woman's feet. She picked him up, took him home, and cleaned him up. All this pleased the man and he stayed forever in her hands. Nüchterner Befund (66) describes a twelve-person surgical team that, one by one, got into the stomach of a patient. A nurse served coffee, but there was no kuchen. They had to keep moving, because they wanted to do some skating in a lung. Morgen in Lanzarote (88) -- that is, Tomorrow in the Canary Islands -- presents a daily encounter with a stranger about whom the writer has the sense that she or he has been waiting for him his whole life long. The writer cannot get him out of his or her mind. Finally this is a person who understands me! The phrase Morgen in Lanzarote occurs to the writer though the writer does not know what the phrase means or what it advertises. But it does not advertise what he or she so much looks forward to. For some of the pieces, the visual art may well be providing the lead. There are some highly complex illustrations, e.g., on 41, 61, and 85. T of C at the end.
