From the story of Steffie Cvek to ''The Kharms Case,'' the pieces in Dubravka Ugresic''s collection Lend Me Your Character are always smart and endlessly entertaining. The former story paints a picture of a harassed and vulnerable typist whose life is shaped entirely by cliches. She searches endlessly for an elusive romantic love in a narrative punctuated by threadbare advice from women''s magazines and constructed like a sewing pattern. The latter story is one of Ugresic''s funniest and is about the strained relationship between a persistent translator and an unresponsive publisher. The stories collected in Lend Me Your Character, the novella ''Steffie Cvek in the Jaws of Life,'' and a collection of short stories entitled ''Life Is a Fairy Tale'' solidify Ugresic''s reputation as one of Eastern Europe''s most playful and inventive writers.
