the end and the bomb

Witold Gombrowicz's novel Ferdydurke is an avant-garde work, surprising the reader in many ways.

 

One of the most interesting fragments is the ending of the work. The reader might expect a lofty reflection or moral instruction. In reality, however, the novel ends with a short, not very sophisticated rhyme - "it's over and bomb, whoever read it is a trumpet."

 

The reader comes to quite depressing conclusions about human life.

 

Today in the photo there is a new mural dedicated to the author.
