Antologías (no poéticas)













¿Alguien duda del dicho según el cual «la mejor defensa es un ataque»? El autor de esta antología del escarnio y la ofensa no tiene ninguna duda. Guiado por la firme convicción de que corren tiempos en los que conviene llevar armadura para estar en sociedad, “El Descosío” ha compendiado y comentado sin ningún recato ni miramiento un auténtico tesoro de citas llenas de agudeza y crueldad inteligente. Tanto los personajes a los que pertenecen las citas como a los que van dirigidas, unas veces ilustres y otras no tan conocidos, quedan aquí retratados con mucha más fidelidad que en cualquier biografía al uso. Templado en la fragua del desenfado más provocador, “El libro del escarnio” no es sólo un libro para saber quién dijo qué de quién, sino también un sugeridor consejero para la autodefensa dialéctica más sofisticada.
