Viac o knihe

Frederick Barthelme's writing captures profound emotions in the minutiae of everyday life, exploring settings like parking lots and grocery stores. His unique style, characterized by post-ironic dialogue and deadpan descriptions, reveals the underlying tensions in seemingly mundane moments. Through his "Dirty" or "Kmart" Realism, he transforms ordinary experiences into reflections on the complexities of routine, emphasizing the significance of the small, often overlooked details that shape our daily existence.
