More about the book
The meta of these "journeys" are particular villages, now populated by ladies who live hanging from trees inside silk moth cocoons, now by cows that produce milk once a month, on the 15th to be precise; now by "well-mannered mice" that ask the owner for permission before nibbling on the houses of the villagers. And the flowers are no less peculiar: there is the "gentleman flower" that warns the other flowers when the wind arrives that wants to spread their fragrance around; the "bad flower" that sticks out its tongue if you look at it; the "greedy flower" that eats you alive... A series of fables, sketches, surreal vignettes.
