Hellmuth Karasek Reviews the Ikea Catalog: Glamour.com. The IKEA catalog might be the most popular printed-and-bound publication in the modern (uh, last few years, at least) world, but the literary establishment has never really paid it much attention—until now.

Hellmuth Karasek Reviews the Ikea Catalog: Glamour.com

Hellmuth Karasek—arguably one of the most literary-critic-y of all literary critics—is a German professor of theater studies, author, and journalist who served as the director of Der Spiegel's culture section for more than two decades. Karasek recently sat down with the IKEA catalog—which boasts a print run of 220 million since its inception in 1951—and reviewed it just as he would any work of literary fiction. Well, sort of. I mean. If you think of it as a picture book, maybe. "The people have to squeeze in between the furniture, they have very little to say, and what they do say is hardly coherent," Karasek notes in the review video, above. A puzzlement, for sure.
