Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. A Mentor Classic / The New American Library, New York. c1959. Softcover / Mass Market Paperback. A Mentor Classic, MT716, 75¢. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Very Good +; scant edgewear; small crease at spine from pressure of adjacent book. No DJ. Pi…ctorial card stock wraps. Wraps are not bent or folded; spine is not creased or split; text is secure in binding. 192 pp 12mo. This book is a classic of comedy, a superbly funny picture of Nero's Rome as seen through the eyes of Petronius, its most amorous and elegant courtier. This book recaptures all the ribald humor of Petronius' picaresque satire. The hilarious story of the pleasure-seeking, fortune-hunting adventure of an educated rogue turns every weakness of the flesh, every foible of the mind, to laughter. A clean very presentable copy.
