Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Including Finnigin: A Book of Gillilan Verse I do not know why I publish this volume. True, many people have said they wanted copies of my stuff, but they were charitably lying about it, God bless them, and didn´t deceive me for a moment. I´m only glad they thought so much of my temporary joy as to purchase it for me at the price of their own souls´ jeopardy. I know enough of the experience of publishers of their own verse to realize that I´ll lose money on this book, so it isn´t greed for gain that prompts me. I suspect it´s largely vanity, re-enforced with the knowledge that a few sincere friends really do want my least-worst verses, that moves me to start this drain on my bank account. At any rate, I enter into it with joy. The bell-wether, as it were, of this huddle of strays, is the "Finnigin" story, which opened to me the door to opportunity, both in the periodicals and on the platform. The fact of its having been published in New York Life, that acknowledged standard of the world´s humor, did almost as much for the story and me as did whatever merit the former possessed intrinsically.
