ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The most outrageous works from one of the best Argentine humorists of our times. Quino shows us everyday reality with a touch of his great humor.

"Every book by Quino is the closest thing to happiness: It's like quinotherapy." -Gabriel Garc a M rquez

Appliances that we need for our daily lives, even if we don't know what they're good for, factories that produce pills to counteract the effects of the pollution they themselves cause, workers unable to distinguish between reality and fiction... The world around us can sometimes seem absurd, but not less real because of it. In this unusual and hilarious volume, popular Argentine cartoonist, winner of the Prince of Asturias Award and the French Order of Arts and Letters Medal, shows us everyday situations, historical events, and possible futures in all their impossibility, with his characteristic humor and unparalleled capacity for satire.
