About this listen
Leacock’s Point: A Treasury of Wit and Satire
Step into the whimsical and wonderfully absurd world of Stephen Leacock, Canada’s beloved humorist. This carefully curated collection brings together 12 of his most delightful short stories from Frenzied Fiction (1918), Literary Lapses (1910), Nonsense Novels (1911), and Moonbeams from the Larger Lunacy (1915). Whether skewering the pretentiousness of academia, playfully mocking social conventions, or embracing the sheer joy of nonsense, Leacock’s tales remain as fresh and comical today as when they first captivated listeners over a century ago.
With his trademark blend of dry wit, exaggerated scenarios, and keen observational humor, Leacock takes us on a journey through the absurdities of life. From clueless professors to bumbling businessmen. Often himself on bizarre adventures, each story is a masterclass in comedic storytelling.
This collection is perfect for lovers of classic humor and literary satire; it showcases the genius of Stephen Leacock at his best. Whether you're revisiting his work or encountering it for the first time, prepare for a dose of humor that stands the test of time.
