Hardback small octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), minor foxing top edge, minor edgewear. 183 pp. Dr Shrapnel, the pseudonymous critic, satirises a variety of subjects in and out of academe. These adventurous essays include lampoons on writing, language, and literature. In his outrageously funny ch…apters and critical asides, Schrapnel returns us to the joy that language can still inspire. These satirical essays were originally published in his satirical column in 'Oasis, A Literary Magazine' from 1992 to 1996. Dr Shrapnel is the pen-name of Richard McKee, and American academic and teacher of writing and art design.
