Leviathan ya da Dünyaların En İyisi

20. Arno Schmidt, one of the most important writers of the century, is one of the "unique" writers. Schmidt, who has an individualistic, even solipsistic, pessimistic worldview, surprises the reader with his fragmentary, bombastic texts that transform everyday speech language, break words into atoms, and have a devilish sense of humor. The author, who is also a Joyce translator, has created a visual, surprising and experimental work at the highest level, with his texts using his own unique syntax, punctuation marks, phonetic spelling, word games, strange typographies and layouts. His is one of the most distinctive voices heard from Germany: He combines a painful anger directed at the near and distant past with a black light that he casts on the future over the present. He relieves himself of irony by running, and it is witnessed that he has gone off the rails there too. ...) He constructs 'scenes' together with extraordinary speed; his language works like a vocal tool, he leaves ample room for the possibilities of distortion of the word, he frequently inserts and withdraws in the style of a rattlesnake. Each time, I finished Arno Schmidt's texts with the feeling that I had barely escaped the noise of a crowded boulevard. ."
