Kaputt is a collection of short stories by the Italian author Curzio Malaparte, published in 1944. The stories offer a raw and often surreal view of war and the human condition, exploring themes such as brutality, corruption, and moral decay in times of conflict. The work is characterized by its biting style and its ability to portray the complexity of the war experience from a personal and critical perspective.
