Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks by Edward Monkton

Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks by Edward Monkton

A compendium of beautiful thoughts for women of taste and splendor
More About Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks
Edward Monkton, perhaps better known as the U.K.'s top-selling living poet Giles Andreae, pairs a witty and quirky writing style with simple yet elegant illustrations to celebrate the four bastions of femininity, namely: shoes, chocolate, purses, and clothes.

Be it a handbag of glory, the shoes of salvation, the beautiful frock, or the kingdom of chocolate, Monkton fluidly expounds the virtues of many a lady's desires:

Buy me, Lady, said the frock,
and I will make you into a
BEAUTIFUL and WHOLE and
COMPLETE Human Being.
Do not be SILY, said the Man,
for a frock alone cannot do that.
TRUE, said the Lady. I will
have the Shoes and the Bag as well.

Giles Andreae, philosopher, poet, artist, and all-around intriguing man, is the alter ego of Edward Monkton, an urbane Eton and Oxford educated philosopher, poet, artist, and all-round interesting person. Edward Monkton's website is www.edwardmonkton.com.
