Edward Lear

Edward Lear invented nonsense, and no one has ever done it better. This collection gathers the poems that birthed an entire genre, where creatures sail to sea in sieves, owls court cats, and a man with a luminous nose wanders the night searching for lost love. The Jumblies themselves a band of grotesque,Determined little beings set sail in a perforated bowl and encounter wonders that would make no sense whatsoever unless you surrender to Lear's peculiar logic. Here you'll meet the Dong with a Luminous Nose, the Quangle Wangle who sat on the top of a tree, and the Table who went to seek a fortune across the sea. These verses demand you abandon adult reasonableness and embrace joy in the inexplicable. For readers who love wordplay, cherish the absurd, and remember that some truths can only be told through nonsense.
