Produktinformationen "A Bicycle Of Cathay"

A brisk, playful collection that invites readers to travel through pages as if stepping into a curious, bustling street. A Bicycle of Cathay promises wit, wonder, and a sly wink at the modern world.Frank Richard Stockton's short stories offer a charming blend of humorous travel fiction and satirical adventure tales, where travel and imagination ride side by side. The prose navigates journeys and modernity with a light yet perceptive touch, painting Victorian America and its foibles with warmth, irony, and a keen eye for human foibles. These tales read as conversations with Mark Twain's own travel chronicles, yet they keep a distinct Stockton voice-inventive, humane, and gleefully observant. For classic literature lovers and general readers welcome alike, this illustrated edition readers will delight in the era's atmosphere and the evergreen cleverness of its storytelling.A Bicycle of Cathay stands as more than a reprint: it is a restored token of literary history, thoughtfully curated by Alpha Editions for today's readers and future generations. Out of print for decades, it returns as a collector's item and a cultural treasure, honouring late nineteenth-century writing while remaining fresh, accessible, and vividly engaging. Suitable for casual readers and devoted collectors, these pages celebrate the enduring voyage between travel and imagination, through Stockton's celebrated stockton short stories.
