Short story about a deaf man, who cuts people tongues
Old pen-pal short storyShort story about astronauts landing on a planet of shapeshiftersStory about telepathy, telekinesis, and murderOld short story about climbing the toughest mountain in the known universeFind sci fi short story about invisible creatures on everyone's headsLooking for a short story from the '80s where inanimate objects talk because of a flukeShort story search: reverting back to primitive languageHelp identifying short story about people never leaving their own house/roomSearching for a short story about people being stuck togetherShort story about political speeches
I'm searching for a short story I read a long ago in a different language. It was listed as a story by Ray Bradbury, but I can't find it in his bibliography. I've checked every title, that is even remotely related to the plot, and couldn't find it. And the style is not exactly like his. It's very weirdly written, basically two pages story, divided to several very short chapters. The writing is very simple - short sentences, simple words.
It's about a man, who starts with thoughts about how words are useless, and music is one true thing, when it's without words. And how he wants to remove words from the world. He's a soloist, who works alone. With a knife. He removes words, tongues and keeps them in jars. He writes his confession to the police, because he's deaf. He put a metal wire through his ears, to stop the words and just listen to the music in his head.
I have it in different language, but I want to find the author and read the original.

When you say you have it in a different language do you mean you actually have it or you used to? If you actually have what is the title and what language? Could you add some translated quotes and the original language?

When you say you have it in a different language do you mean you actually have it or you used to? If you actually have what is the title and what language? Could you add some translated quotes and the original language?
