Publisher's Synopsis

Ruthless Rhymes For Heartless Homes is a collection of dark and humorous poems written by Harry Graham under the pseudonym ""Col. D. Streamer"" and published in 1902. The poems are short and often satirical, poking fun at societal norms and moral values. They cover a range of topics including marriage, parenting, religion, and death. The rhymes are often macabre and contain dark humor, making light of serious situations. The book has been described as a parody of traditional children's poetry and has been both praised for its wit and criticized for its insensitivity. Despite its controversial nature, Ruthless Rhymes For Heartless Homes has remained a popular and influential work of literature, inspiring other writers to explore similar themes in their own works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
