تقدّم الكونتيسة دي سيجورفي هذا الكتاب مذكرات فلسفيّة وأخلاقيّة على لسان حمار، وقد قام بترجمته إلى العربيّة حسين الجمل.

في الكتاب محاولةٌ لتغيير النظرة إلى الحمار ونشاطه الذهني، فقد قُلبت الموازين، وصار الحمار كائنًا ناطقًا، يشغله همٌّ واحد ألا وهو الوصول إلى درجة الإحترام في نظر الإنسان، ونفي صفة الغباء والكسل عنه.

تقوم فكرة الكتاب على إفتراض أن الحمار يستطيع النطق، فماذا سوف يقدّم كي ينال تقدير الإنسان، بل إنه يتعدّاه إلى امتلاكه الناحية الفلسفيّة في طرح أفكاره، حيث يقدم حلولًا واقتراحاتٍ لمشاكل البشر وقضاياهم، وإيجاد السّبل المنطقيّة في التصرّفات والسلوكيّات التي يقدمها.
