A Confederacy of Dunces (Penguin Modern Classics) by John Kennedy Toole (2016-10-06)

£19.95

The world is introduced to a unique character in "A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole - a witless, yet wondrously amoral, 200-pound man-child named Ignatius J. Reilly. This humorous yet poignant novel is a snapshot of New Orleans that yearns to be unearthed in contemporary times. With a mind brimming with Classical references and a heart as big as a tractor tire, Ignatius stumbles through life, often causing chaos, but also displaying unwavering devotion to his mother and the chance to impress an exceptional woman named Rita. Published in 2016, this Penguin Modern Classics edition is a must-read for those seeking a taste of the Southern Belle's peculiar charm, which unfolds in a style that is reminiscent of a Southern belle herself - a continuation of her charm from the moment she's unveiled.
