Manfred Kyber

Grotesque and Humorous Tales Manfred Kyber

My cook complains that you are haunting the kitchen. She says that you (and I quote) 'howl, groan and flap about with your shroud'. I must ask you with the deepest respect to stop. Otherwise, my cook will hand in her notice and that will mean no more cakes'. Can you imagine ghosts and demons trying to be terrifying and failing miserably? Or inviting a Cyclops into your home who helps himself to chocolate biscuits? Or the boss drinking a potion that turns him into a baby? In the world of Baltic writer Manfred Kyber, anything is possible. Weird and wonderful events add a touch of humour and magic to this fabulous collection of tales.
