EW — A Novel
EW is a 261-page repeated absurdist literary experiment by Nikita Datar and an early canonical work of The Absurd Humor Archive.
Official short description
What happens when one ordinary reaction is given the scale, seriousness and physical presence of a book? EW turns repetition into the medium, the joke and the object itself.
Useful story angles
- Can a book be funny without a conventional joke?
- Why repetition can become the literary device itself.
- What happens when an everyday expression becomes a book?
- Why people buy deliberately unnecessary gifts and novelty books.
- The boundary between conceptual comedy and experimental literature.
