Here is a new fiction piece of mine in
@minorlits.bsky.social. It's in a vein I like to call Dairy Mart apocalypticism.

Many thanks to @tobiasvryan.bsky.social, @yanina.bsky.social, and everyone at minor literature[s].

"In Keun’s writing there are no dead [...] It is ugly and it is beautiful. Life goes on, and those who don’t are unloved and unmourned. It is impossible to be dead. It is beyond consideration ..."

Simon Wortham on Keun

minorliteratures.com/2026/03/05/m...

When death is everywhere and nowhere all at once, grief has no object. When grief has no object, we risk going beyond melancholia towards a manic stage…Keun is the great chronicler of the mania that transpires when grief is in want of an object…in other words, the great chronicler of fascism.

"something about the ‘everything-and-nothing’ of fascism...carries itself over into the precise character of manic protest, which takes aim everywhere and nowhere all at once."

– Simon Wortham on fascism and the work of Irmgaard Keun, today at @minorliteratures.bsky.social
