- Abstract
- en_US I have done my best to get a handle on this book. It seems to me to be a series of some nineteen short writings of a humorous and perhaps satiric sort, not without some clever plays on words. Several touch at least on traditional fables. I had my best luck with La crevette et le crab (29). The crab changes his behavior--that is, he walks straight--to please his future mother-in-law, but changes back to his normal behavior once the huge ocean-floor wedding is over. There is also a continuation of GA, in which the rejected cicada teams up with a drone and is welcomed by an art-loving squirrel (85- 90). The three live out the winter in good style and return then in spring to their lives. The squirrel reminds the other two that when destiny closes a door, it opens a window.
