Chinese Summary/中文概要：
Cream pies in the face at the everyday idiocy of living.
A die-hard loyal dog keeps returning like a boomerang to his owner, who keeps trying unsuccessfully to abandon the canine; a powerful manager is ready to take on anybody, deal with anything, and pay any price if he can only get the Beatles back together for a concert. A monk makes a vow of silence to get closer to God and then is conquered by the unspoken beauty of a mute woman. An elderly lady is eaten alive by envy and malice. These are just a few of the protagonists in this kaleidoscopic collection of short stories which Benni narrates with his typically delightful balance of irony and delicacy.
Benni discombobulates his readers with his innate skill at revealing the most curious, unpredictable and mysterious sides of life. Then he surprises these same readers by subtly manipulating nouns, verbs, and adjectives, with his refined tools as a great story teller
