I sina längre dikter var den brittiske nonsensmästaren Edward Lear uppfinningsrik, komisk och melankolisk. Inom den versform som han framför allt odlade, limericken, är han vildare och mer absurd, och innehållet i dikterna, som Lear skrev direkt för barn, kom att stå i ett intressant spänningsförhållande till limerickens bestämda, femradiga form. Magnus Hedlunds nya, kongeniala översättning av 129 limerickar gör full rättvisa åt Lears egenartade fantasi och tillsätter en dos av översättarens egen underskruvade göteborgshumor. Lear illustrerade själv sina limerickar med spretiga, underfundiga tuschteckningar, och dessa finns naturligtvis med i ellerströms svenska utgåva.

'Nonsense is the breath of my nostrils', wrote Edward Lear (1812-88), and this collection demonstrates the wonderfully varied ways in which he pursued his philosophy of life. He created an extraordinary world filled with bizarre creatures - from the Dong with a luminous nose to the Pobble who has no toes - who misbehave with joyful abandon. Here can be found such exuberant and timeless verse as 'The Owl and the Pussy-cat', 'The Quangle Wangle's Hat' and numerous comic limericks, along with stories, letters, alphabets and recipes, all accompanied throughout with his fantastical line drawings. Gently pointing out human follies and the absurdities of the conventional Victorian society in which he lived, Lear's nonsense has enchanted children and adults alike for generations.

Full Length, Comedy Characters: 1 male, 1 female Interior Set In a San Francisco loft, aspiring author Felix focuses his binoculars on a prostitute plying her trade.
