Private inscription to front free endpaper. Mr. Sheridan can knock fun and philosophy out of anything, and in his latest collection of humorous essays he writes with equal ease of Onions, Greying Hair, and Mountain Roads. He gains our confidence by a simulated helplessness, wheedles us with disarming humility, and injects his sane wisdom under the smooth needle of wit. Here is a humorous writer who, making the particular universal, speaks for all of us, and whose tempered irony and deceptively-simple style have won for him an ever-widening circle of readers (Front dustjacket flap) John Desmond Sheridan (1903 1980) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, and humourist. He was a frequent contributor to the Irish Independent newspaper. In addition to his novels and essays, he also published several books of poetry, and authored a biography of poet James Clarence Mangan in 1937. (Wikipedia) Sprache: english.
