10 Masterpieces of Comedy

Six giants of English and American comic fiction share the stage in this collection: Jonathan Swift's biting satire, Jane Austen's social wit, Charles Dickens's gallery of eccentrics, Mark Twain's dry American humor, Jerome K. Jerome's beloved comic timing, and Edwin Abbott's flat, delightful satire come together in ten stories built to make you laugh out loud. From drawing-room comedy to absurdist adventure, this anthology proves classic literature can be every bit as funny as it is enduring. Curated for readers who want their classics with a wicked sense of humor, this Chronicle Vault edition presents the complete, unabridged texts in a clean, fully reflowable format for all e-readers.
