Toplumun yerleşmiş geleneklerini hiçe sayan, Afred Jarry'nin sadık öğrencisi ve patafiziğin üstatlarından, "anarşist" ruhlu Boris Vian, o benzersiz söz gücüyle, yaşamın acı gerçeklerini, diğer eserlerinde olduğu gibi, oyunlarında da kahkahayla selamlıyor. Vian, Kasaplığın Elkitabı'nda, savaşın üzerine ironik üslubu ile giderken, 2. Dünya Savaşı'nda Avrupa'ya gelmiş olan Amerikan askerleri ile de iyiden iyiye dalgasını geçiyor.

Boris Vian was a French polymath: writer, poet, musician, singer, translator, critic, actor, inventor and engineer. He is best remembered for novels such as L’Écume des jours and L'Arrache-cœur (translated into English as Froth on the Daydream and Heartsnatcher, respectively). He is also known for highly controversial "criminal" fiction released under the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan and some of his songs (particularly the anti-war Le Déserteur). Vian was also fascinated with jazz: he served as liaison for, among others, Duke Ellington and Miles Davis in Paris, wrote for several French jazz-reviews (Le Jazz Hot, Paris Jazz) and published numerous articles dealing with jazz both in the United States and in France.
