Three More Novels by Ronald Firbank
Three More Novels is a series of animated tableaux filled with beautiful, eccentric women pursuing pleasure in the most wicked, perverse, irresponsible ways, written by an extraordinary Englishman who dared to be as original in his books as he was in his life. So cleverly and wittily are the stories told that we sense we belong in the charmed cafe society of post-1918 Britain, and life seems, as Ernest Jones says on his critical introduction, a Nirvana in which homosexuals are the ultimate chic and in which . . . almosteveryone turns out to be at least bisexual.
"Firbank is an example of a timeless author who should not be forgotten, because he is utterly unique" -- The Independent
