Publisher's Synopsis

Brief Diversions: Being Tales, Travesties And Epigrams is a collection of short stories, satirical pieces, and witty epigrams written by J.B. Priestley and published in 1922. The book is divided into three sections, each containing a different type of writing. The first section, Tales, contains a series of humorous and imaginative stories that explore various themes such as love, death, and the supernatural. The second section, Travesties, features satirical pieces that parody well-known literary works and public figures of the time. The final section, Epigrams, is a collection of witty one-liners and aphorisms that showcase Priestley's talent for clever wordplay and insight. Overall, Brief Diversions is a delightful and entertaining read that showcases Priestley's versatility as a writer and his unique style of humor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
