Kafkaesque Stories

Those who long for the scorch of days amidst the reign of the cold nights are condemned to be with the light. Those who cheer for the light to surrender during its rule of despair are condemned to be one with the darkness. Those who hope for heaven in a world of soil and soul are lost for the rest of their days. Those who remember only for joy of a universe of pure endlessness know nothing of a better day. Those who fight forever are enslaved by the thought of the thing they'll never have. Those who seek nothing are free of the world they live in, for they live to know that all is never right.

Dystopian science fiction short story peppered with references from Hindu Mythology. Influenced by works of Kafka and Dostoevsky.

Brief Tales of the Abstruse - Abysmal. Offside. Whimsical. A telephone rings even though no one has dialed. A man lives in a house that swaps rooms every night. A child collects shadows in preserving jars. Stories like these could be written here. Some already are. Others are still waiting to be told. This collection brings together short episodes from the fringes of the intelligible - bizarre, disturbing, sometimes funny, never unambiguous. Anyone reading here must be prepared to leave familiar rules behind. Because nothing remains as it seems.

It is a simple story about two people meeting at a house party. Absolutely nothing special happens. There aren't even many conversations. One could argue that the story is interesting because of all the things that are not happening. Have you ever experienced a situation that you just couldn't make sense of? That's probably because you're thinking only about what did happen, without giving enough attention to what didn't happen. You'll understand this when you read the story. Only suitable for those who enjoy spending more time thinking about a story than actually reading it. Also my first story.

A short story about a drunk man and a cat in an alley discussing about humanity and ignorance.

A cryptic letter arrives with no return address, no stamp-only his own handwriting and a warning: "Do not meet her again." But he already has. And he can't forget her. As his reality begins to crumble, love and guilt entwine like smoke. Is she the cure to his emptiness-or the reason for his unraveling? In a world where nothing is certain, and even the self is suspect, how do you trust a heart that may not be your own?

Is everyone looking at you? Do they all know the secret that you are trying so desperately to hide? Can you live under a suspicion of guilt even when you're not guilty of anything? This is a dark tale of magical realism bordering on surrealism. Be confused, be scared, where does the anxiety lead us, what can it make us do? This is a story you're not supposed to enjoy.

Adrian Keller's life is ordinary-until a single letter changes everything: "You are hereby summoned for the crime of being alive." Suddenly, the world twists into corridors that stretch endlessly, doors that lead nowhere, and shadows that seem to watch his every move. A faceless bureaucrat, Mr. Grey, awaits to judge him. Guided by the steadfast faith of Elias, challenged by the cold logic of Maxim, and haunted by the quiet intensity of Clara Weiss, Adrian must navigate a surreal labyrinth where every step questions reality itself. In a city indifferent to suffering, Adrian faces a trial with no rules, a verdict with no clarity, and a question that cannot be ignored: what does it truly mean to exist? The Trial of Existence is a dark, philosophical journey blending the unsettling surrealism of Kafka, the moral intensity of Dostoevsky, and the existential absurdity of Camus. A story about guilt, identity, love, and the fragile human spirit standing against a universe that refuses to explain itself.
