archyology: the long lost tales of archy and mehitabel

"Archy and his racy pal Mehitabel are timeless," noted E.B. White in his essay on Don Marquis and his famous creations. The undimmed enthusiasm of several generations of fans (including yrs. truly) -- who every year buy thousands of copies of Marquis' earlier collections -- testifies to their appeal. A whimsical and sophisticated sage, archy the cockroach entertains readers with iconclastic observations on pretensions, politics, and our place in the cosmos. This collection of long-lost pages from archy's writings is funny yet profound.
