First edition, octavo hardcover (VG) in d/w (poor); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Ballads for Broadbrows' is a delightful collection of light verse and humorous poetry from the celebrated British writer and humorist A. P. Herbert. Written during the interwar period, these poems offer a satirical and charming look at British social life, manners, and the everyday absurdities of… the early 20th century.Known for his sharp intellect and playful mastery of rhythm and rhyme, Herbert explores various themes ranging from the quirks of the legal system to the simple pleasures and frustrations of modern living. This collection captures the essence of sophisticated English humor, making it a timeless choice for readers who appreciate clever wordplay and lighthearted social commentary. Each poem serves as a window into the 'broadbrow' perspective-accessible yet intelligent, mocking yet affectionate.Whether skewering bureaucratic nonsense or celebrating the trivialities of daily life, Herbert's 'Ballads for Broadbrows' remains a masterclass in the art of the comic poem, solidifying his reputation as one of the preeminent humorists of his generation. The work is a vital piece of literary history for those interested in the evolution of British wit and the enduring appeal of lighthearted social satire.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
