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.

A beautifully reimagined and illustrated edition of classic poet Edward Lear's unfinished nonsense verse poem by award-winning illustrators Charles Santore and Nicholas Santore, which celebrates diversity and the importance of accepting others."Chippetty tip! Chippetty tip! Its only name is the Scroobious Pip." Unfinished at the time of Edward Lear's death in 1888, "The Scroobious Pip" is a fantastical journey into the world of beasts, birds, fish, and insects as these creatures try to determine what, exactly, the Scroobious Pip is. In the end, the Scroobious Pip's unique nature is embraced and he is welcomed among all animals, fish, and insects. Award-winning illustrator, Charles Santore, crafted a fabulously clever interpretation of the illusive Pip before his death in 2019, and his son, acclaimed artist Nicholas Santore, has fully realized his father's vision in the beautiful paintings that bring to life Lear's humorous nonsensical poem.
