The chronicle of the city of Glupov, where one mayor has a device with recorded scripts instead of a brain, and another has a head stuffed with truffles. At the same time, the third writes a charter "on the non-restriction of town governors by laws", and the fourth dreams of making identical houses for identical people. Fantastic, would you say? Not quite, more like a grotesque. Such a technique, which, like a magnifying glass with a built-in flashlight, helps the author to illuminate - and the reader to see - the main thing. Mikhail Evgrafovich Saltykov-Shchedrin, who knew life in the capital and the provinces from all sides, did not fantasize, but wrote his characters from life. Not only the town governors, but also the inhabitants of the town of Glupov. By the way, what do the latter do while the first weird? You will find out in the book.
