A new topical, but light-hearted, collection of limericks. Some of the selected verses may deal with the serious news, but all are filled with irony and good humor in the true limerick tradition. Many of the poems offer a fresh look at simple human nature and social trends including the evolution of language. The sports and entertainment pages are also covered with good fun. Lovers of whimsical poetry will find a bonus chapter on just what makes the ideal limerick. A must for those who enjoy writing their own. "A recommended addition to every limerick enthusiast's library." - Reginald T. O'Leary, Dublin Limerick Society
