Sense and Nonsensibility: Lampoons of Learning and Literature
Two widely published humor columnists and "bad boys" of academia take their wit and wisdom to dazzling new lows in this irreverent send-up of highbrow literary culture.
At last, the thinking person's take on the life of the mind in today's increasingly mindless age. Sense and Nonsensibility pokes fun at everyone from spoof-proof scholars to pompous professors; from anal-retentive authors to plagiarizing poets; from snake-oil therapists to bestselling illiterati.
This singular collection by Professors Lawrence Douglas and Alexander George brings together their most popular pieces, along with many brand-new ones, including:
The Academy Awards for novels with categories for "Best Female Protagonist Doomed," "Best Narrator Unreliable," and "Best Novel Unfinishable by Reader"
Home Shopping University offering the greatest ideas in Western history at rock-bottom prices
I'm Okay, I'm Okay: Accepting Narcissism the best in "Self-helplessness books"
The Penis Orations Iron Man's answer to The Vagina Monologues
"Ask the Academic Ethicist" their notorious advice column, which has shocked higher education
