Mencken's celebrated six-volume Prejudices series, this anthology presents some of the sharpest and most irreverent prose in American literary history. Selected and introduced by novelist James T. Farrell, the volume showcases Mencken's blistering wit as he takes aim at democracy, religion, politics, the arts, and the American middle class — whom he famously dubbed the booboisie. Written during the 1910s and 1920s, these essays capture the voice of one of America's greatest contrarians, a man whose savage criticism and elegant style made him the most influential journalist of his era. Mencken's prose remains as bracing today as when it first scandalized and delighted readers in equal measure, cementing his reputation as the Sage of Baltimore.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888001102043,"sku":"2026200009292-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3c914a17-3b22-435a-81be-23fde0fc71c6.png?v=1781752134","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009292-secondhand-prejudices-a-selection","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
