Issus de deux recueils devenus des classiques du comique anglo-saxon (Nonsense Novels et New Nonsense Novels, 1911-1920), les neuf textes composant cette nouvelle édition de L''île de la tentation (augmentée de 3 nouvelles) parodient neuf types différents de romans d''amour, de l''idylle chevaleresque pré-Monty Python à la guerre des sexes sur île déserte, en passant par la romance écossaise sauce Brontë. Universitaire et lettré, admiré de Groucho Marx et Woody Allen, Leacock concasse tous les genres pour en faire des pépites de nonsense à mourir de rire, plutôt que se pâmer d''amour. On verra à la lecture de ces irrésistibles << mini-romans >> d''une étonnante modernité à quel point les clichés littéraires et amoureux, ici passés à la moulinette d''un Tex Avery avant l''heure, ont si peu changé.
