Description
James Branch Cabell delivers a sharp, witty comedy of evasion in The Cords of Vanity, where the humor lies in the characters' desperate attempts to avoid responsibility and the absurdity of their own excuses. Cabell's writing is both funny and perceptive, capturing the universal comedy of human procrastination and the self-deception that makes shirking feel almost noble. Perfect for fans of clever satire and witty prose, this EPUB edition lets you carry the wit everywhere. Whether you're looking for a laugh or a mirror held up to the comedy of modern avoidance, Cabell's work is a delightful read that stays with you.
