Synopsis
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize "A masterwork . . . the novel astonishes with its inventiveness . . . it is nothing less than a grand comic fugue."-- The New York Times Book Review A Confederacy of Dunces is an American comic masterpiece. John Kennedy Toole's hero, one Ignatius J. Reilly, is "huge, obese, fractious, fastidious, a latter-day Gargantua, a Don Quixote of the French Quarter. His story bursts with wholly original characters, denizens of New Orleans' lower depths, incredibly true-to-life dialogue, and the zaniest series of high and low comic adventures" (Henry Kisor, Chicago Sun-Times )., A Confederacy of Dunces is an American comic masterpiece.

    The used book was exactly as described like new. The seller promptly shipped my book and did not play games with the shipping fee I paid (included in the price) . Several sellers include the shipping fee in the price but then when they ship they opt for a cheaper shipping fee so they profit from the difference while they let the customer wait for longer to receive the item. This HONEST seller did not do that. Transit time from GA to Miami was what I paid for and exactly 3 days in bubble envelope

    This was a real find, especially since this item was reasonably priced and in good condition. The book was well-packaged as well and arrived within about 2 weeks, which is good for US to UK, especially at the moment. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and would buy from this seller again.

  • Not so much.

    For decades I"ve wanted to read this book. I am now a little over 1/2 through it. Honestly, I don't like it. Maybe if I had been reading it 20 or 30 years ago I would have liked it more. I don't think the author likes ant\y of his characters. Who could like the principal one. MAYBE the last 1/2 will change my mind. Physically, the book arrived in great shape & I'm grateful to have it to read.

  • This book is beyond funny. Though I rarely read novels, this is the exception. It is pure entertainment.

  • I laughed til I cried and my sides hurt!

    Marvelously written. Deserved the Pulitzer’s Prize that it won. Ignatius J. Reilly is a dysfunctional, pitiable oaf. Who somehow manages to bumble through life on his own terms ...... sort of. His eccentric follies remind us of at least ONE memorable character we are certain we have encountered at least once in our lifetime. This book will make you smile and laugh out loud time and time again.

  • One of the best books of all time!

    One of the smartest books ever written. I read this 20 years ago and ordered it to have it again as an older adult. Such a great story and wonderful characters that are unforgettable. Funny to read, but written in a way that makes you stop and think.
