Download or read book Essays of Multiple Sorts written by Bruce Howard Hamilton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ESSAYS OF MULTIPLE SORTS is a not entirely forgivable foray into bits and pieces of serious horsing-around on some very verbal kinds of levels. The main possible defect or deficiency, stylistically, could be in terms of some somewhat quirky uses of, as well as some very "special" nonuses of, commas. Aggregately, the aggregated matter might seem (if not instructive) marvelously fruity and fruitful-or such. [[The opening offered item is perhaps quotidian and bizarre dialogue (({X: Your shoes resemble mine. Y: Mine are like yours. Z: Mine are close kin to any. A: Why are we awaiting a decidedly large doom? B: Since when were we doing that? X: Footwear is nothing. Y: Indeed!})), whereas the final item really might seem to be sincerely praising a very recent Rock Star.]]
