Show Forever Amber A Book Review of a Book Review I read in the little volume "Pageant" a book review re-view of Forever Amber. If I should talk to a mixed group of guests in my home, using the very words found in that book, and my subject its subject, the good mesdames of my "set" (when not in the saloon I always mingle with the best), would dub me labid-inous, labid-inous, leacherous, a libertine, and wire in hot-foot a demand to the Depravity Censor that I be yanked off the air and my license cancelled. Yeah, 'n my hide hung out to dry. on the bark alley fence. But that self-same woman will grab Forever Amber, Am-ber, a lattigut, and rivet her nose into that book of a chippy (yes, that's the word) who went to bed with King Charles of England. That's a long enuf book review of a book review of that book! |
