F. Anstey Knihy
Tento autor bol majstrom humoru a fantázie, ktorý majstrovsky kombinoval absurdné situácie s prenikavými postrehmi o ľudskej povahe. Jeho diela, často využívajúce prvky nadprirodzena a neobvyklých premien, skúmajú témy identity a spoločenských očakávaní. S neotrelým štýlom a vtipnými dialógmi si získal obľubu ako rozprávač, ktorý dokázal pobaviť aj prinútiť k zamysleniu. Jeho humoristické romány, ktoré sa často objavovali aj vo forme divadelných hier a filmov, sú dodnes cenené pre svoju originalitu a nadčasovosť.
