«Grieche sucht Griechin: Eine Prosakomödie» is the satirical novel by Friedrich Dürrenmatt, published by Ullstein Taschenbuchvlg. in paperback.
Archilochos, a modest, teetotal and solitary office clerk, places an ad to find a wife. A mysterious woman responds, and her appearance brings him an unexpected social rise that is not what it seems. Dürrenmatt satirises bourgeois hypocrisy, power and the fragility of identity with grotesque characters and comic situations.
The work was originally published in 1955. Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921-1990) was a Swiss writer and playwright. The text is in German.
For readers of humour and twentieth-century German literature.
Friedrich Dürrenmatt was a Swiss author and dramatist. He was a proponent of epic theatre whose plays reflected the recent experiences of World War II. The politically active author's work included avant-garde dramas, philosophical crime novels, and macabre satire. Dürrenmatt was a member of the Gruppe Olten, a group of left-wing Swiss writers who convened regularly at a restaurant in the city of Olten.
