Title: Matter of Laughter - The Complete Collection - Raymond Devos - book
Summary :
You know I have a scientific mind. But recently, I made a shocking discovery! By observing matter more closely... I saw atoms... playing with each other... and laughing their heads off! They were bursting out laughing! Do you realize the incalculable consequences this can have? I don't dare talk about it too much, because I can hear the scientists from here: "Sir, laughter is unique to man!" And yes! And yet! I saw, with my own eyes, atoms that: "Ha, ha, ha!" Now, who were they laughing at? Perhaps me? But I'm not sure! It would be interesting to know. Because if we knew what amuses atoms, we would give them something to laugh about... So much so that we would only make them burst out laughing. So, you might ask, what would become of nuclear fission? An explosion of joy! One hundred and sixty-five masterpieces of absurdity, poetry, and laughter. The complete texts written and performed, for nearly thirty-five years, by Raymond Devos, the incomparable, marvelous wordplayer.
