«Paradies der falschen Vögel» is the satirical novel by Wolfgang Hildesheimer, published by Suhrkamp in paperback (169 pages, in German).
The focus is the painter Ayax Mazyrka, the «Rembrandt of Procegovina», a capital figure in art history despite never having existed: his paintings were created by a forger who filled the national gallery of an imaginary country with the approval of its prince. The satire targets authenticity, collecting, and artistic fame.
This edition is part of the Suhrkamp Taschenbuch collection, number 295. The cover bears the subtitle «Roman».
For readers interested in satire, art, and twentieth-century German literature.
