THE LONELY MONK AND OTHER PUZZLES

by Ivan Morris ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 25, 1971

If you've matriculated past Dr. Matrix and are not given to ""acedia"" (in the event that you're lazy it means just that) you may be able to handle Mr. Morris' brainteasing busywork which is * ** *** in order of difficulty (we're not sure we could even cope with a (apple)*). The range is from an Algorithm (prove that BLACK is not the square root of BEAUTIFUL) entailing abstruse mathematics to the charming and funny verse, ""The Laetitia Riddle,"" and the amusing illustrations by Hugh Casson should distract you from your own stupidity.
