Paperback. Etat : New. Sternberg's rule-breaking, genre-defying novel upends the humdrum workday world A nameless employee stands outside the door to an office, hesitating to enter because he is five minutes late.

Years return and reverse through a series of inflicted hellscapes as a tension builds between an untrammeled imagination willing to commit any crime and the inescapable rigidity of the mind.First published in French by Les Éditions de Minuit in 1958, The Employee was awarded the Grand Prix de l'Humour Noir in 1961.

He was briefly a member of the Panic Movement, founded by Fernando Arrabal, Alejandro Jodorowsky and Roland Topor.…
