Winsome Winnie and other New Nonsense Novels

CHAPTER V
27/42

By this rollicking collection of 'Nonsense Novels,' in tabloid form, he not only confirms the excellent impression of his earlier work, but establishes his reputation as a master of the art of literary burlesque.

The whole collection is a sheer delight, and places its author in the front rank as a literary humorist." Mr.JAMES DOUGLAS in _The Star_.--"We have all laughed over Mr.Stephen Leacock's 'Literary Lapses.' It is one of those books one would die rather than lend, for to lend it is to lose it for ever.

Mr.Leacock's new book, 'Nonsense Novels,' is more humorous than 'Literary Lapses.' That is to say, it is the most humorous book we have had since Mr.Dooley swum into our ken.

Its humour is so rich that it places Mr.Leacock beside Mark Twain." _Morning Leader._--"Mr.Leacock possesses infinite verbal dexterity....

Mr.Leacock must be added as a recognized humorist." _Daily Express._--"Mr.Stephen Leacock's 'Nonsense Novels' is the best collection of parodies I have read for many a day.
