Thousand aphorisms by the internationally acclaimed master of the genre.
Via his famous philosophical and satirical aphorisms, Lec (1909-1966), a veritable Polish Cioran, denounces the black-and-red barbarity of his time, the mediocrity of those who usurp power and language, and human beings’ universal cowardice and egoism. In the skeptical and doom-saying lineage of an Orwell or a Borowski… yet these Tangled Thoughts are not without humor or lyricism.
