It takes fewer than one hundred pages of Winshluss’ talent and intelligence to deconstruct Darwinian theories and illustrate, through example, the transition from ape to modern man. A dazzlingly graceful and energetic animal ballet, SMART MONKEY describes the ancient struggle of the weaker ones to survive against brute force. In this case, it’s a small monkey with mischievous manners, daily confronted with the traps of the jungle and its many predators. Of course, he’s the smartest of them all, and there isn’t a single misstep from which he can’t escape with flair. He embodies the superiority of the brain over muscle, refinement over brutality, culture over instinct… until an epilogue, set 2,000 years later, reminds us that civilization was not built on goodwill, and that the weakest always end up perishing sooner or later…
