Fables for the Existentialist is a collection of brief allegorical stories exploring absurdity and meaning. Drawing on traditions of parable, fable and satire, the book presents a series of compact fictional narratives in which bureaucracy, ritual, faith, authority and language appear as unstable structures against futility. The accompanying illustrations by the author form a parallel visual language that reflects and extends the collection's recurring themes. Note: This collection contains mature themes and occasional scenes of psychological or symbolic violence.
