Nonsense and Peppermilk (Paperback)

Paperback. We are exposed to nonsense in the form of nursery rhymes from an early age. A little later in life, we come upon such books as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and perhaps Edward Lear's A Book of Nonsense or Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and we don't think twice about their colorful dream-like settings and their whimsical nonsense. We come upon humor magazines and comics and we learn of the antics of Monty Python and others on television.The point is that nonsense humor has a long tradition not only in our culture, but also in our lives. Nonsense and Peppermilk is at least as nonsensical as the above, if not more so. The characters are roughly sketched, and fly by and change often as if they were part of a wild dream. The plots also change, as if they cannot decide on where exactly they are going. And yet there is a string, a golden thread, either in the book or in our mind that seems to give it meaning.Filled with puns and jokes, word play and surreal images, this book contains no extremely foul language or ideas, so it would be safe for children. Nonsense and Peppermilk is meant to be humorous - good clean fun for everyone of any age. This item is printed on demand.
