In this book we meet Aristophanes at the Theatre of Dionysus, the greatest comic poet of classical times. He explains to us how the poisoned arrows of his comedy defeated the demagogues, the warmongers and all the hypocrites of his time, and talks to us about the power of satirical speech against the tyrants of all ages.
A book that will make us laugh until we cry, but also look in the mirror realizing that two and a half thousand years later, what Aristophanes satirized are still problems of today's societies.
AN ENJOYABLE COFFEE WITH THE MAN WHO KNEW WELL THAT HUMOR IS THE BEST WAY FOR SOMEONE TO TALK ABOUT SERIOUS THINGS!
