PRITHEE SAVE THESE FROM THE FIRE

About the Book

Montaigne is scarcely a household word any longer; the personal essay is deader than the cat who went splat where the fat lady sat. A curious glance within these covers will discover a passel of reflections with as much commercial viability as the ruptured auto tires stacked in junkyards. Ruminations over the course of a gladsome lifetime, they fall into four piles: pure personal essays introductions to the faculty literary review Undercurrents travelogues studies in the appreciation of fiction all intended as a keepsake of their father for his son and daughter, along with any chance soul who might look over their shoulders.

About the Author

Within this book lie such poems as their writer finds worth salvaging. Who else will so deem them doesn’t so much matter. What matters is that they be set down in print, a testament in final, supreme gratitude for such quality of life rarely permitted anyone to get away with living. So saith T.J. King, who discovered and perfected the Best Revenge.
