巴塞尔姆的40个故事

Barthelme's use of irony and absurdity creates a unique reading experience. I wonder how his approach changed the way stories can be told.

Many of these stories felt layered with meaning, but I’m curious if others felt they had a clear message or if it’s all about personal perception.

The mix of wit and depth made the stories stand out. I wonder what personal or cultural influences led Barthelme to this style.
