Publisher Description: Alphonse Allais's third collection finds him in full anti-bilious form: love stories, revenge stories, monologues, short-shorts, and animal stories-all affronting the reader with startlingly modern absurdity, black humor, and wordplay. Among the highlights are "Absinthes," an internal monologue about the Green Fairy; "Poor C sarine," a tale of obsessive love; and "A Good Society," which proposes collecting used matches for the poor. As a bonus, six uncollected stories are included. PLUS illustrations and informative notes on the text by Doug Skinner. FIRST ENGLISH TRANSLATION |
