On Politics: A Carnival of Buncombe by H. L. Mencken,

On Politics: A Carnival of Buncombe by H. L. Mencken,
With a style that combined biting sarcasm with the "language of the free lunch counter", Mencken shook politics Mencken and politicians for nearly half a century. The political arena afforded Mencken a special opportunity to showcase his talents. He despised hypocrisy Mencken and found numerous easy targets among politicians. But while he could be merciless in attacking local Mencken and national leaders, Mencken always interspersed his scathing commentaries with entertaining exaggeration Mencken and high humor. This collection of seventy political pieces, drawn from Mencken's famous Monday columns in the Baltimore Evening Sun during the twenties Mencken and thirties, shows the "Sage of Baltimore" at his satirical best. While social attitudes may have changed, the value of Mencken's words on American politics offers us a timeless perspective.

Serpent in Eden: H. L. Mencken and the South by Fred Hobson,

Serpent in Eden: H. L. Mencken and the South by Fred Hobson,
The appearance in 1920 of H. L. Mencken's scathing essay about the intellectual Mencken and cultural impoverishment of the South, "The Sahara of the Bozart", set off a firestorm of reaction in the region that continued unabated for much of the next decade. In Serpent in Eden, Mencken scholar Fred Hobson examines Mencken's love-hate relationship with the South. He explores not only Mencken's savage criticism of the region but also his efforts to encourage southern writers Mencken and the bold "little magazines", such as the Reviewer Mencken and the Double Dealer, that started up in the South during the 1920s.

Mencken and James Joyce, Gustave Flaubert and Ivan Turgenev, and Elizabeth Bishop and Marianne Moore are examined in this magnificent collection of stories, legends, poems, essays, letters, and memoirs that illuminate the breadth and depth of friendship in all its human complexity. The bourgeois life, capitalism, Mencken?s booboisie and David Brooks?s bobos--all have been, and still are, framed as being responsible for everything from financial to moral poverty, world wars, and spiritual desuetude.

Has capitalism made us better as well as richer? With incisive analysis, passionate advocacy, and razor-sharp wit, he asks where we?re headed-and whether we`re going to like it when we get there.
