The Best of Archy and Mehitabel: Introduction by E. B. White (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets Series)

A selection of the best of the hilarious free-verse poems by the irreverent cockroach poet Archy and his alley-cat pal Mehitabel.

Don Marquisâ€™s famous fictional insect appeared in his newspaper columns from 1916 into the 1930s, and he has delighted generations of readers ever since. A poet in a former life, Archy was reincarnated as a bug who expresses himself by diving headfirst onto a typewriter. His sidekick Mehitabel is a streetwise feline who claims to have been Cleopatra in a previous life. As E. B. White wrote in his now-classic introduction, the Archy poems â€œcontain cosmic reverberations along with high comedyâ€ and have â€œthe jewel-like perfection of poetry.â€

Adorned with George Herrimanâ€™s whimsical illustrations and including Whiteâ€™s introduction, our Pocket Poets selectionâ€”the only hardcover Archy and Mehitabel in printâ€”is a beautiful volume, and perfectly sized for its tiny hero.
