Description
This translation of Drew Hayden Taylor's collection of humorous essays and columns, The Best of Funny, You Don't Look Like One (Theytus Books, 2015), allows French speakers to discover for the first time the unique work of the Ojibwe author. After making many readers laugh (and think) with the four volumes of Funny You Don't Look Like One, Taylor has chosen to bring together his best texts as a blue-eyed Ojibwe observer. He manages to highlight, with intelligent and offbeat humor, the differences between the way of life of Aboriginal people and that of white people to break certain stubborn stereotypes. A sly mind if ever there was one, this modern-day Trickster will know how to mark your imagination! Drew Hayden Taylor, an Ojibwe author from the community of Curve Lake, Ontario, wears many hats: he is a playwright, novelist, short story writer, columnist, screenwriter, and director. His love of words has led him to write nearly thirty works, including many critically acclaimed plays. Taylor recently published a collection of science fiction short stories, Take Us to Your Chief (Douglas & McIntyre, 2016). Drew Hayden Taylor is one of those writers who have a formidable grasp of humor, its social reach, its capacity to work deeply and its beneficial effects quickly. Thomas King
