You'll find jokes about writers, agents, publishers, librarians, grammar, poetry, bookcases, and lightbulbs. There are rib-ticklers for typographers, crackers for critics, and badly foxed quips about antiquarian bookshops. Here too are the best literary April Fool's (the joke's on you), rejection letters (the joke's on the publisher), cookbook jests (the joke's a bit crumby) and wardrobe puns (the joke's Narnia business). This delightful literary celebration will make every bibliophile laugh out loud, even in the library.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI love telling people spoilers about The Picture of Dorian Gray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNever gets old.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy does Wally always wear a stripey shirt?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBecause he doesn't want to be spotted.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's the difference between Romeo and Juliet and COVID-19?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne's a coronavirus and the other's a Verona crisis.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho was JRR Tolkien's favourite singer?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElvish Presley\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Your diary is really good,\" said his wife.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"My thoughts exactly,\" replied Samuel Pepys.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46804332150942,"sku":"ADS-9780712354516","price":22.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780712354516.jpg?v=1778207328","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780712354516","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
