Los incidentes

Kharms lived through turbulent times in Russia, and his stories often reflect a sense of existential despair mixed with satire. I wonder what inspired his unique blend of humor and darkness.

The absurd scenarios seem to mirror real frustrations and fears, but in a way that feels both playful and poignant. Was this a common tactic among writers of that era?

This fragmented approach adds to the surreal and disjointed feeling of the collection. I'm curious whether this was Kharms’s stylistic choice or a reflection of his creative process.
