The Works of Max Beerbohm

Step into the witty, acid-tongued world of Max Beerbohm with this debut collection of satirical essays. Published when he was a mere 24, *The Works of Max Beerbohm* showcases a precocious talent already fully formed, having honed his craft in the pages of *The Yellow Book* and *The Savoy*. From his Oxford days, Beerbohm skewers the literary and social elite of fin-de-siècle London with an unparalleled blend of elaborate parody and devastating satire, dissecting the inflated egos and artistic pretensions of his contemporaries, including those within his own Bodley Head circle.
