A propos de cet article

Print on Demand. This book is a collection of satirical essays concerned with the human condition that dissect wit and morality with a compassionate eye. The author's sharp analysis of societal structures and institutions illuminate the frailty of the institutions meant to safeguard us and the fragility of the individuals subject to their structures. The author's use of humor to highlight the absurd and the grotesque in societal norms is a literary technique that amplifies both the absurd excesses of society's self-interested tenants and the dignity of the oppressed and downtrodden. The author's work is renowned for its insightful social commentary, deft use of satire, and timeless application of wit and critical thinking to the human condition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
