Publisher's Synopsis
Between 2016 and 2018, Aevi, who was six and seven at the time, began reporting observations he had made about the world. Some of these were quite brilliant, some were strangely profound, others were plain funny, and still others were utterly puzzling. But no matter what he said, he always spoke with a tone of confidence and authority as if he were revealing a higher truth that others were blind to. These observations were written down as proverbs, short sayings of anonymous origin that convey some general truth about the world, since that's what Aevi made them sound like. Compiled here is a selection of these proverbs, simple yet profoxund field observations of our world reported over the course of two years by a child in the process of making sense of everything around him. Each proverb is beautifully illustrated by the same reporter.
