Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pigs to Market In sending Pigs to Market the author buries an innocent and playful ambition. Six years ago his first book, Home, was published anonymously without his consent. Two years later, with three serious novels to his credit, it occurred to him that man is not all sorrow and that even an author has a right to amuse himself if only he amuses his readers at the same time. Following out this idea, he decided to introduce his care-free ego to the public under the name of John Crowfoot and wrote as a curtain-raiser a yarn called Lovely Reason. As though the world were not sufficiently persuaded that history repeats itself, the magazine which purchased Lovely Reason published it anonymously, and once again without his knowledge or direct consent the author found himself the subject of a vapid guessing match. In the meantime the novelette, Simon Simon, written as a follow-up, appeared in the Saturday Evening Post as by John Crowfoot and incidentally gave rise to various imitations on stage and screen.
