Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Paris, this work presents an irreverent take on the traditional almanac, blending humor and cultural critique. Alfred Jarry, along with notable contemporaries, crafted a multidimensional collage filled with puns, in-jokes, and contemporary references, reflecting the political turmoil of the Dreyfus Affair. The first accessible English translation retains the original's unique format, offering readers a glimpse into the vibrant and tumultuous artistic scene of the time.
