Holy Tango of Literature

A witty collection of poetry and prose satirizing the great poets and playwrights of literary history, with a twist: each writer's name is rearranged in an anagram as a title of the new "work," creating the subject for a parody rendered in the writer's style.
A devilishly clever collection of poetry and prose satirizing the great poets and playwrights of literary history, from Shakespeare, Chaucer, and Basho; to Oscar Wilde, Edgar Allen Poe, and Emily Dickinson; to Sylvia Plath, e. e. cummings, and Maya Angelou. But there's a twist: Each writer's name is rearranged in an anagram as a title of the new "work," creating the subject for a parody rendered in the author's style, riffing on everything from the IRS to Star Wars. Features astute caricatures by renowned cartoonist Richard Thompson (1957-2016), whose syndicated comic strips Cul de Sac and Richard's Poor Almanac appeared in TheWashington Post, and who also illustrated for TheNew Yorker, TheAtlantic Monthly, and many others.
