The Best of Damon Runyon Humor Paperback Book by Damon Runyon Pocket Book 1943

Description: The Best of Damon Runyon Humor Paperback Book by Damon Runyon Pocket Book 1943 Every now and then the endeavors of a gifted American make their way across the Atlantic and upset the even tenor of the ways of the English. John Paul Jones threw them into a frenzy, James McNeil Whistler in calmer days brought them to a boil, and a more recent American bombshell to burst right into the heart of Mayfair is Damon Runyon. This choice from the pen of the celebrated newspaperman who is said to know more of Broadway, and of sporting life, and the underworld, than other writing man alive, is indispensable to all who are interested in Americana presented in the richly imaginative Runyonese style. These are stories that first pull at your heartstrings, and then make you laugh till you cry for mercy. They are full of suspense, and are written in a strange, wonderful, inspired jargon. Book is in acceptable condition. General shelf and corner wear. Cover fraying along the edges. Some white marks on front and back cover. Light staining on the interior and exterior.
