European Twilight Zone

I love these stories. One narrator buys a locomotive from a man in a bar. Another slowly crawls inside a guitar. In one story a man's life is celebrated beause of the seeemingly benign things he prevented from happening. These highbrow yarns are quirky beyond quirky. The humor is absurd but usually gentle. The author's voice sustains its power to hold the reader despite the filter of translation. What a shame that this little gem is out of print.
