Happy Birthday Wanda June. ( His only play, i believe)
My wife surprised me with tickets to see him speak for my birthday, and i was wholly unprepared.. so when i saw he was signing books, i bought the only one i did not already have.. a laughed when I saw the asshole in his signature..
It was a hilarious talk by the way.
And as for old textbooks, you should try it. They contain what people thought was literature at the time.. i have one called Modern English Prose dated 1906.. it has excerpts from what they thought was model prose at the time. I believe it was an American text because it includes mostly American Authors..
One of them has Teddy Roosevelts speech after he was shot... one has Mark Twains story about the lindburger cheese on the train.. it brings me to tears laughing..
I’m busting your balls. That’s a really interesting collection.
