Short Circuit 2025
Short Circuit is a 2025 novel written by Austrian author Wolf Haas. The story centers on two characters reading books about each other's situations: an Austrian man waiting for an electrician to fix his power outlet and an Italian mafia member in prison who believes he will be killed in his cell. The novel's structure draws inspiration from the artwork of M. C. Escher. An English version translated by Jamie Bulloch came out in 2026 through HarperVia. Publishers Weekly described it as "a clever, wryly funny ride".
