Die Mutationen (The Mutations)
\n<\/strong>Translation:<\/em> Ksenija \u010co\u010dkova<\/p>\n

\"Mutations\" consists of 7 stories and 1 poem, each based on a classic text, from Little Red Riding Hood to Virginia Woolf!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The domestic fly Leon Zumsa wakes up one morning and finds himself transformed into a 'monstrous beetle,' in other words, a human being. The lion from Kurt Tucholsky's satire \"The Lion Escapes!\" mutates into a polar bear exploring hipster Berlin. The model of the Venus statue from Prosper M\u00e9rim\u00e9e's story \"La Venus d\u2019Ille\" works as a young slave in a 'firm' that shows incredible parallels to today's working world. \"The Anecdote from the Last Prussian War\" (Kleist) is set in the future, where the last four people are fighting against each other. Ingeborg Bachmann's \"The Invocation of the Great Bear\" is crossbred with the myth of Chthulhu by Lovecraft, resulting in a poem that strangely evokes Gotthold Ephraim Lessing.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
