Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1961. First edition. Hardcover. Bound in yellow decorated cloth, near fine, in a very good plus jacket with slight darkening at spine. Edward Gorey. Review slip laid in with a publication date of October 26, 1961. Gorey teams up with humorist Felicia Lamport to give us this delightful potpourri of light verse, parodies, and drawings. And, in the best tradition of satire, at the expense of everything from fashion and pedants to thinking machines and Buddhism "Zen and Now." Literary styles and psychiatric jargon are ruthlessly parodied, cooks and cousins raked over the coals! 127pp.
