概要

 Immerse yourself in the delightful world of Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town, a charming collection of stories by Stephen Leacock, originally published in 1912. Celebrated as a classic of Canadian humorous literature, these tales unfold in the fictional town of Mariposa, nestled along the picturesque shores of Lake Wissanotti. While inspired by Leacocks own experiences in Orillia, Ontario, he cheekily notes in the introduction that Mariposa is not a real town—rather, it embodies countless small towns across Canada, with their familiar square streets, maple trees, and quaint churches and hotels. The characters, though reminiscent of Orillias residents, are quintessential small-town archetypes, whose follies and flaws are depicted with both humor and affection.Copyright Comedy and Fairy Tales アート 文学史・文学批評
