Home / The Inventions Of The Idiot
Download The Inventions of the Idiot and discover the comical ideas of a man hell-bent on improving civilization with eccentric and sometimes outlandish ideas.
This well-written story takes a tongue-in-cheek approach at how grand developments can be achieved with the simplest ideas, like how to become a millionaire by becoming a beggar. Author John Kendrick Bangs presents these life-changing schemes in an easy-to-digest form that perfectly displays the enjoyable oxymoron that is the "idiot-genius."
"If you'll give me his address," said the Idiot, "I'll send him thousands. For five dollars a dozen I'll invent hallucinations for him that people ought to have but haven't."
"No," returned the School-master. "In his behalf, however, I thank you. He collects only real hallucinations, and he finds there are plenty of them without retaining a professional lunatic to supply him."
The Inventions of the Idiot is a well-loved gem, a hilarious and intellectual rarity that has been enjoyed since 1904. Download this quick read and start pondering your own witty but idiotic ideas on how our lives can be improved.
