Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Type: Hardback First Edition. Hardcover Book and Dust Jacket in Very Good Condition. Errata slip tipped in at Title Page. Anthology compiled by Burling Lowrey. Introduction by Nathaniel Benchley. White burlap binding with silver titles on spine, re…d and orange clown heads on front, quite clean and unmarked; tight, solid and square; page edges and pages clean, unmarked, no page creasing. An outstanding collection of a witty excursion into an art that is difficult to execute--the parady, or a spoof, a humorous imitation, to make fun of in good spirit. Some masters of this art included here are Max Beerbohm, John Riddell, Robert Benchley, James Thurber, Wolcott Gibbs, Richard Mallett, and Peter De Vries. Their "victims" range from Conrad to Kerouac. They include novelists, dramatists, critics, and historians. Satire is also used on books of adventure, the western, and historical romance. 304 pages. 5.75 x 8.5 inches. 1960, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, New York, New York, USA.
