description: "Konrad Bayer was an Austrian writer and poet. A member of the Wiener Gruppe, he combined apparently irreconcilable elements—violence, hermeticism, pessimism, ecstasy, banality—and influences —into a bizarre linguistic solipsism which has held increasing fascination for German writers of the last few decades. His most important works are the novels Der Kopf des Vitus Bering and Der sechste Sinn, published posthumously in 1965 and 1966, respectively. Bayer committed suicide in October 1964 at the age of 31."
