Gerard Hoffnung: Hoffnung's Musical Chairs

Hoffnung's love for animals shines from the first section of this book as does his appreciation of the elegance of their construction and their behaviour.. In his eyes all are individuals in their own right. An array of inimitable cartoons includes examples of the influence of music on domestic life, on fashion and ending with an exemplary instance of fortitude and determination in the face of tribulation. This book appeals to the musical and the non-musical and to old and young alike.
