Halfwit Harry

Halfwit Harry is set on finding a job he likes
and tries different trades: on Monday
he looks for work at the tailors, on Tuesday
at the farmhand’s house, on Wednesday
at the tavern… After some amusing setbacks
and failing spectacularly at work, his perseverance
and optimism will at last be compensated.

This version of the traditional European tale
incorporates an agile original rhythm set out
by the seven days of the week indicating
the passing of time and the end of a cycle
which completes the protagonist’s independence.
