Edward Lear's Complete Nonsense
Introduced by Quentin Blake
Published by The Folio Society: London 1996 1st Printing

" Published by The Folio Society in 1996 with an introduction by Quentin Blake, Edward Lear's Complete Nonsense brings together the full collection of Lear's beloved whimsical verse and drawings in a finely produced edition. This volume gathers his celebrated limericks, nonsense songs, and fantastical stories—teeming with eccentric characters, imaginary creatures, and playful word invention—all presented with Lear's original illustrations. Blake's introduction adds warmth and insight, celebrating Lear's enduring influence on the world of children's literature and comic poetry.

Bound in the Folio Society's distinctive style, this first printing captures the joyful absurdity and rhythm that define Lear's art, making it both a literary treasure and a visual delight. It will appeal to collectors of classic humour, enthusiasts of Victorian literature, and lovers of imaginative wordplay and illustration."
