A brilliant collection of playful parodies . . .

In an upside-down 'Lolita', Umberto Umberto pursues a granny with "whitely lascivious locks". Professor Anouk Ooma of Prince Joseph's Land University addresses his colleagues on recent archaeological findings that sehd light on the poetry of Italy gefore the Explosion. Columbus's landing in the New World is covered by television reporters, commentators and guest experts. We are permitted to see in-house publisher's readers' reports, most of them unfavourable, on such submissions as 'The Odyssey', Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason,' and the Five Books of Moses; and we hear a diatribe, in ancient Greece, against the vulgarity of such upstarts as Herodotus, Thucydides and Plato.
