"Come Back, Doctor Caligari" - fourteen brilliant, funny, absolutely fantastic and completely reliable stories about the modern world, a book that forever changed the idea of what literature should be. Controlled madness, outrageous imagination, subtle black humor and the ability to take reality to the point of absurdity made Donald Barthelme (1931–1989) one of the most read and beloved classics of the 20th century, and this collection was introduced into the canon of postmodern literature.
