It’s time for another Open Mic!

The last decade was marked by a series of particularly disconcerting events. Absurd literature often tries to grapple with such sensations through texts that explore the limits of narrative structure, or which have a logic which is entirely their own.

Keith Borg writes both prose and poetry, but in his short-story collection “Il-Parabboli tal-Imġienen” (“Parables of the Insane”), Borg pushes us into situations that are surreal, absurd (with a strong nod towards Borges) which help us look at our daily (and strange) lived experience from a new viewpoint.
