L'Institut Fluide glacial présente les ouvrages de L'Abbé #[nn]

A delightful showcase from the Institut Fluide Glacial de la Recherche pour l'Humour, this 2021 Audie collection spotlights the sardonic wit of Maëster's L'Abbé. The cover sets the tone perfectly: a rotund, white-coated figure and an orange-jumpsuited cellmate share a cramped prison cell — complete with a wall covered in tally marks — trading deadpan dialogue about finishing calculations, to which the reply is a resigned "Tout concorde. On est en prison." If you appreciate French humor that finds comedy in the bleakest of settings, this anthology is a thoroughly entertaining place to start.
