Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town

Viac o knihe

Affectionately combining both the idyllic and ironic, Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town is as fresh, funny and insightful today as when it was first published in 1912. Set in fictional Mariposa, an Ontario town on the shore of Lake Wissanotti, these sketches present a remarkable range of characters: some irritating, some exasperating, some foolhardy, but all endearing. Painted with the skilful brushstrokes of a great comic artist, the delightful inhabitants of Mariposa represent the people of small towns everywhere. This is Stephen Leacock at his best.
