Josh Billings em Ice and Other Things

por Henry Wheeler Shaw

Entre no mundo singular de Josh Billings, o filósofo homossexual cujas observações irônicas e uma forma única de expressão encantaram a América pós-Guerra Civil. Em Josh Billings on Ice and Other Things, Henry Wheeler Shaw, escrevendo sob seu famoso apelido, coleciona um tesouro de seus mais amados ensaios e aforismos humorísticos, oferecendo aos ouvintes uma janela deliciosa para o humor americano do século 19. Isto é mais do que apenas uma coleção de piadas; é uma visão astuta, muitas vezes surpreendentemente emocionante, da natureza humana, das peculiaridades da sociedade e da luta eterna entre o bom senso e a loucura pura. O que torna a voz de Billings tão duradoura hoje é a sua autenticidade, uma sabedoria popular entregue com uma generosa ajuda de erros ortográficos intencionais e de interpretações fonéticas, que só aumentam o efeito cômico e enfatizam sua perspectiva única e não filtrada sobre o mundo.
