Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a parody on the opera "Patience," by W. S. Gilbert, written as a dedication to the conductors of the Chicago and Alton Railroad. The author, a newspaper editor, uses the literary form of the operatic play to satirically address the beauty and vanity of the conductors' uniforms. The author playfully highlights the conductors' vanity by having a female character, Patience, reject the conductor despite his beauty, explaining that she cannot marry him because to do so would lead to others not receiving the pleasure of experiencing his beauty, which would be a selfish act of monopolization. The theme of the book is beauty and vanity, with allusions to real-world scenarios where people place too much stock in external appearances. The author's insights on vanity and beauty lampoon the human ego, demonstrating the comical effects of vanity while satirically celebrating the beautiful conductors of the Chicago and Alton Railroad. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
