The lifestyles of strange characters in a made-up European location are the focus of this satirical comedy book. The wit, colourful language, and dialogue-based style of Firbank’s writing all work together to highlight the ridiculousness of society rules and customs.

An enjoyable book for those who enjoy satire and unique storytelling.
