Description:
MP3 Audio CD. Here?s yet another book written by none other than the man nicknamed ?America?s Oscar Wilde,? the great author, artist and illustrator, Oliver Herford. This Giddy Globe is one in a line of well-written, extremely funny and unconventional books penned by Hertford, this time focusing on presenting us with a never before seen spin on world geography.This Giddy Globe is a book loosely based on geography, merely using references to the main countries of the world to introduce Hertford?s clever little stories, poems and illustrations, as he creates a truly unique masterpiece of humor, causing quite a few positive reactions from notable authors and critics of his time.Hertford delights us with his exceptionally witty prose and poetry, while speaking of the countries and cultures of the world in a droll, creative way.

CHAPTER I THE CREATION Six busy days it took in all To make a World and plan its fall, The seventh, SOMEONE said 'twas good And rested, should you think he could? Knowing what the result would be There would have been no rest for me! Claire Beecher Kummer. It takes much longer to write a Geography than, according to Moses, it took to create the World which it is the Geographer's business to describe; and since the Critic has been added to the list of created beings, it is no longer the fashion for the Author to pass judgment on his own work. Let us imagine, however, that concealed in the cargo of Hypothetic Nebula destined for the construction of the Terrestrial Globe was a Protoplasmic Stowaway that sprang to being in the shape of a Critic just as the work of Creation was finished. Would it not be interesting to speculate upon that Critic's reception of the freshly made World? We may be sure that he would have found many things not to… Read More
