Spike Milligan — co-creator of The Goon Show and poet laureate of the absurd — presents a riotous miscellany of verse, prose, cartoons, and comic sketches that careen between sharp social satire and surreal nonsense with the effortless genius of a man who simply could not be conventional if he tried.\n\nThis collection stands as a testament to Milligan's singular voice: anarchic, tender, politically irreverent, and achingly funny in equal measure. His writing dismantles the pretensions of post-war British life with a wit so sharp it draws blood, yet always with an underlying warmth that kept generations of readers devoted. For those who have never encountered Milligan's written work, this volume is an irresistible entry point; for longtime admirers, it is further proof that the man who declared I told you I was ill was perhaps the sanest person in the room all along.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50736122167515,"sku":"2026100010409-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c877f0d2-62ed-4493-97dc-2bd63e04dbc5.png?v=1792122457","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010409-secondhand-a-book-of-bits-or-a-bit-of-a-book","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
