Paperback. Condition: Good. "A work of genius"--The Boston Globe "From the first sentence of the novel the reader is aware that he is in the presence of a magician.[Collier] casts a spell and he does so always with a smile."--Paul Theroux "A wayward masterpiece.Whatever this volume has cost you, it is, believe me, a great bargain."--Anthony Burgess "It is impossible to convey the subtle wit which makes you laugh out loud, the beauty and penetrating satire which blend so perfectly into its brilliance."--Booklist "The whole is written with sly humor throughout and is illuminated by splendid similes and metaphors which mark the author as a true humorist."--New York Times In the author's own words: "This is a strange book.an emotional melodrama, complete with a Medusa villainess, an honest simpleton of a hero, and an angelic if only anthropoid heroine, all functioning in the two dimensional world of the old Lyceum poster or the primitive fresco.where an angel may outsize a church, and where a man may marry a monkey on a foggy day."--from John Collier's "A Looking Glass" When Alfred Fatigay returns to his native London, he brings along his trustworthy pet chimpanzee Emily who, unbeknownst to Fatigay, has become civilized: literate, literary--and in love with Fatigay himself.

John Collier (1901-1980) was born in Britain, but spent much of his life in the U.S., where he wrote screenplays for Hollywood (The African Queen, Sylvia Scarlet, and I Am a Camera among them) and short stories for the New Yorker and other magazines. He was also a poet, editor, and reviewer.…
