(P/B) THE ENLARGED DEVIL'S DICTIONARY

Παρουσίαση

An incomparable satirist, Ambrose Bierce became the "laughing devil" of the San Francisco news media, for he was about as discreet as a runaway locomotive, according to H.L.Mencken, and nowhere are his uninhibited irony and gift for verse parody more in evidence than in this "dictionary". (From the publisher)
