We present to your attention a new book by Mikhail Zadornov, a satirical writer, playwright, and humorist beloved by the people of Russia. In the “Encyclopedia of National Stupidity” we will talk, despite the title, about quite serious things. Observe what your friends and colleagues laugh at at work, and you will learn a lot about them: what is dear to them, what worries them, how they live and what they do not understand... After all, laughter is the voice of the soul. In addition, it is no secret that thanks to a joke, a long-standing conflict can be resolved, or a new one may arise. Therefore, by dividing the book into two poles: “They” and “We,” the author wanted to confirm the reader in the idea that there is nothing more beneficial than the ability of a person, whether he is Russian or American, to first of all laugh at himself! And only then... Mikhail Nikolaevich shares the authorship of this book with all his readers and viewers, those who send their funny stories from their own experience to his e-mail, and it is possible that someone will see a story from their life in this book. Enjoy reading!
