Abstract

en_US
Having read Moser's Der einsame Frosch: Sechs fabelhafte Geschichten, I was eager for more. This book turns out to be a selection of short materials published over some years. The materials are quite various. An engaging first story tells of a day in Moser's youth where he discovered and cherished and lost a millipede (7). Die fünf Holzwürmer (20) I already knew and liked from Der einsame Frosch. Some materials here seem to me to spring from the good colored illustrations and to be concentrated on them, like Das Kukuruzer Tagblatt (24) with its full-page colored illustration. In another case, twelve cartoons carry the story of Die Erdmaus und der Regenschirm (28). Sometimes the cartoons build something of a visual joke, as when the bowed legs of a crane are explained by his nightly ride of a moor-pig through the bog (74). More like a fable, it seems to me, is Der Gott der Ameisen (75). Against the single command of their tradition and its god Mu, the queen of the flourishing ants leads them out of the valley into the heights, where they are terribly punished by Mu; that is, a cow stepped on them as she was mooing on her way home. My prize goes to Gespräch in einer Schublade (98) with its black-and-white full-page illustration. After a fountain pen and a ballpoint pen made lying statements about their past accomplishments in writing novels and laws, respectively, a pen-knife spoke up to say that it once wrote I love Irene in tree bark. That was no lie, and the other two were reduced to silence.
