A review by dely_dd
Come sono diventato stupido by Roberto Rossi, Martin Page
3.0
It is really a funny read, above all the beginning and in some pages the author remembers me of Daniel Pennac who I like.
The book talks about a young man who isn't happy and he finds out that his unhappiness is due to the fact that he is intelligent. So he tries to become stupid because according to him in a society like ours only stupid people can be happy because they don't have questions about nothing, they don't care about the decadence of society where everyone is selfish and gives importance to frivolities. I also liked the satirical attack against the multinationals and against the speculations on the stock market.
It is a funny read but however it is an attack that the author makes to our society, its superficiality and its loss of values and moral principles.
