Overview
Lo más disparatado de uno de los mejores humoristas argentinos de nuestros tiempos. Quino nos muestra realidades cotidianas con una veta de su gran humor.
«Cada libro de Quino es lo que más se parece a la felicidad: la quinoterapia.» - Gabriel García Márquez
Electrodomésticos que necesitamos, aunque no sepamos para qué sirven, fábricas que producen pastillas para contrarrestar los efectos de la contaminación causada por ellas mismas, trabajadores incapaces de distinguir entre la realidad y la ficción… El mundo que nos rodea nos puede resultar en ocasiones absurdo, aunque no por ello menos real. En este insólito y divertidísimo volumen, el popular dibujante argentino, ganador del Premio Príncipe de Asturias y de la Medalla de la Orden y las Letras de Francia, nos muestra situaciones cotidianas, episodios históricos y posibles futuros en toda su imposibilidad, con su característico humor y su inigualable capacidad para la sátira.
