Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Nonsense Anthology
But a more probable reason is that the majority Of the reading world does not appreciate or enjoy real nonsense, and this, again, is consequent upon their inability to discriminate between nonsense Of integral merit and simple chaff.
A jest's prosperity lies in the ear Of him that hears it. Never in the tongue Of him that makes it.
