THE RING LARDNER READER by Maxwell Ed. Geismar

THE RING LARDNER READER

By

Pub Date: Nov. 1st, 1962
Publisher: Scribner

A prodigal collection of the great humorist keeps him alive and available for a younger generation whose acquaintance may never have been extended past Haircut. The material here, excerpts from Gullible's Travels, from the You Know Me Al correspondence, also includes all of Lardner's best stories, as well as articles, essays, parodies, songs and a little from the less well known experimental plays. All in all, a fine representation of the writer's work which will offer both casual entertainment and permanent enjoyment.
