An Unlikely Study of Nature is a book by Hungarian writer Lajos Nagy which describes different animals in a humorous and absurd style.
As a self-initiated project four descriptions were chosen and illustrated.
“As for their buzzing, flies can be grouped into four categories: soprano, tenor, baritone and bass flies.”
“It has been decades since anyone has seen sharks.”
“Sometimes the lark flies so high that it looks the same size as a wasp, in that it resembles an airplane.”
“The snake appears on women breasts.”
