Więcej o książce

This collection features 42 satirical pieces from Israel, penned by Ephraim Kishon, who previously charmed readers with his first satire collection. Kishon does not spare his fellow countrymen; he keenly observes human weaknesses and vanities that manifest in everyday Israeli life or hide beneath the surface. Through mundane events, he uncovers absurdities and deeper meanings, boldly naming what seems nonsensical in established norms and behaviors. His sharp wit delivers truths that remain conciliatory, acknowledging that despite all shortcomings, life is still worth living. It only requires careful observation, correction, and critique. By doing so through his satire, Kishon not only aids his compatriots in recognizing their own flaws, quirks, and idiosyncrasies but also contributes to correcting the errors in this world. These often biting satires find their purpose in helping to illuminate and address the imperfections around us.
