Description
Ironic, hilarious, and a shot in the arm for would-be authors everywhere, this little volume collects hundreds of disparaging opinions on some of the world's great writers and works, from Lord Byron on Shakespeare ("Shakespeare's name, you may depend on it, stands absurdly too high, and will go down.... He took all his plots from old novels") to Harry Thurston Peck on Mark Twain: "A hundred years from now it is very likely that 'The Jumping Frog' alone will be remembered." (We can only wonder if anyone remembers Mr. Peck.) This edition comprises the previous titles Rotten Reviews, Rotten Reviews II, and Rotten Rejections.
