Arcadian Adventures with the Idle Rich
ISBN: 9781514367902 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Mausoleum Club stands on the quietest corner of the best residential street in the City. It is a Grecian building of white stone. About it are great elm trees with birds-the most expensive kind of birds-singing in the branches. The street in the softer hours of the morning has an almost reverential quiet. Great motors move drowsily along it, with solitary chauffeurs returning at 10.30 after conveying the earlier of the millionaires to their downtown offices. The sunlight flickers through the elm trees, illuminating expensive nurse-maids wheeling valuable children in little perambulators.

Who but Stephen Leacock would endeavor to describe a boarding house -- in terms of schoolroom geometry?

Or to detail the terrible ordeal of Melpomenus Jones, unable to say, "Good-bye"?
