Kurt Kusenberg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kurt Kusenberg (June 24, 1904 - October 3, 1983) was a German author of short stories.
Kusenberg was born in Göteborg, Sweden.
His father was an engineer who worked in various countries, so Kusenberg grew up in Lisboa, Portugal and also lived with his parents in North Africa for some time. He studied fine arts in Munich. While working for the publishers Rowohlt as editor, he wrote nearly seventy short stories. They are unique in the way that dream, reality, humour, and the absolute fantastic are mixed.
Kusenberg died in Hamburg in 1983.
In 2004, his 100th anniversary, a new collection of stories was published.
