Description

It is the author's stupid opinion that stupidity is very undervalued nowadays. To vindicate this quality, he has written the books gathered in this compilation. The protagonist of the first one is the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, in his awkward beginnings in the late 19th century Vienna. (It also includes a representative sample of psychoanalytic practice.) In the second, the most intelligent detective of all time is passed through the sieve of the most absurd humor. ("If Sherlock Holmes had been Groucho Marx", it could have been titled.) In the third, Franz Kafka, the celebrated author of "The Trial", supplants the protagonist of his novel when he is put on trial in a crazy court for a crime he has not committed. (The book includes an humorous treatise about the figure of the writer and the city of Prague, to which he is inextricably linked.) The fourth portrays the atmosphere that filled Paris during the "Belle Époque", taking as a reference Marcel Proust's monumental novel "In Search of Lost Time". And the fifth and last one has as its main character a Superantihero who faces the gangsters and the political corruption in the New York of the mid-19th century. All five books well seasoned with large doses of what anthropologists call 'idiotic thinking'."I don't understand anything at all" Crystal Bowdoin "All characters behave like idiots" James Banfield "It's not right to make fun of an eminence like Sigmund Freud" Fred Knight "Surreal garbage for deranged minds" Rachel Goeser "The author should be locked in an insane asylum" Martin Cornachia
