When Jack Sued Jill : nursery rhymes for modern times
"When Jack Sued Jill" is the latest collection of original verse by maverick multimillionaire publisher Felix Dennis. Taking the innocence of nursery rhymes and turning them into something altogether darker, Dennis turns his piercing eye on the follies and absurdities of modern life. From ASBOs to Osama Bin Laden, creationism to crack houses, Humpty Dumpty to Tony Blair, nothing and no one is spared. Even more shockingly, once you've read Dennis's updating of "Little Miss Muffet", you'll never be able to think of her in the same way again. Scathing and hilarious, imaginative and unpredictable, "When Jack Sued Jill" is an essential collection of twisted nursery rhymes for the twenty-first century.
