Between 1997 and 2004 Füsers published two novels and a volume of short stories. In these three works he mixed the real and the surreal. His stylistic devices are farce , satire and grotesque . He often found his subjects in the problems of the lower classes of society. Due to various provocations, his house broadcaster DW-TV terminated its cooperation with him in 1994. His two drama sets , performed in 2007 , are about unemployment.
