## Bio

Born in Austria on 28 April 1874, Kraus built a career dismantling the institutions around him. His satire cut through German culture and the political machinery of Austria and Germany, but his sharpest blade was reserved for the press - the very industry that carried his words. He worked across forms: essays, aphorisms, plays, poetry, all instruments for the same dissection. The Nobel committee noticed three times, though the prize never came. He died on 12 June 1936, having spent a lifetime making enemies of the powerful and careless alike.
