The Literary Life and Other Curiosities

In ten chapters that will endlessly entertain any aficionado of the printed word, "The Literary Life and Other Curiosities" presents an astonishing wealth of anecdotes, quotations, lists, poems, quizzes, and elerihews having to do with books and authors — and attendant phenomena like publishers and booksellers. The latest edition of this classic contains a new chapter, "Of Editors & Agents, " and revised and updated material throughout. "Literary Life" is, to quote the "New York, " "a wonderful divertissement."
