In this book are collected dozens of humorous articles published in newspapers which, despite their seniority, are always very pleasant to read. We realize that Alphonse Allais with his Captain Cap and all his ridiculous or crazy characters had been an extraordinary precursor. He already announced the lineage of absurd authors, Dadaism, surrealism and even iconoclastic humor. Since he was also a journalist, he kept a keen eye on the society of his day and knew better than anyone how to ridicule his contemporaries.
The texts are all very short, usually one to three pages, very incisive and often in the form of percussive and hilarious dialogues with puns, formulas to the punch of a brilliant brilliance. As great a writer as Courteline or Feydeau with the anarchist and provocative side of a totality and more modernity. You must read or reread Alphonse Allais.
