Beschrijving

GOOD SENSE will help us through most of the day, but there are moments when we need to purge our soul with pointless fun. In such emergencies we turn to nonsense literature. This pea-green book is a celebration of nonsense literature from all over the world, written both for children and adults. It is a reader’s guide with a simple premise: if you like the works of Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll, you may also like these hundred or so other books. This guide may read like a parody on a literary textbook, but once you have finished it you will know your nonsense. TOM SWIFTY is a Dutch devotee of nonsense literature. He found that there is no introduction in English to this most English of genres. A fact almost as puzzling as the nonsense itself. Swifty felt that he should try and help out with a little beginner’s course.
