The authors examine with a magnifying glass a batch of surprising, hilarious or hurtful phrases that would surely have amazed Teresa de Jesús.

Each expression is illustrated literally. In this way, decontextualized and taken literally, they become surreal, absurd, almost disturbing.

Furthermore, they investigate the origin of language. Each phrase is thoroughly dismembered, in an attempt to decipher its etymology, how and why.

The texts are translated into English and French.
