Max Blecher’s work of autobiographical fiction employs poetic prose to explore his ideas of self-identity and the body. An intimate and frank account, <em>Occurrence in the Immediate Unreality</em> is unsettling as it examines and lays bare what Blecher terms ‘the crisis of unreality’ in relation to the human condition and details the ‘bizarre adventure of being a man’ from the perspective of Blecher who never fully experienced manhood owing to his contraction of tuberculosis in 1928. What is offered to the reader then, is Blecher’s experiences of being a physically infirm adolescent experiencing the simultaneous struggle of social isolation and sexual awakening.
