Laugh and the World Laughs With You
Irma Kurtz reflects that laughter is one of our deepest expressions of revelation - a natural reaction when times are good, and great form of resistance when times are dark.
The writer Irma Kurtz is in a particularly happy mood.
In Something Understood she reflects that laughter is one of our deepest expressions of revelation - a natural reaction when times are good, and great form of resistance when times are dark.
The notion of laughter has inspired many great artistes, and Irma will draw on the work of Robert Frost, Katherine Mansfield, Mozart and Paganini, among others, to illustrate her theme.
