Description: A hideous crime is committed at a fashionable London society gathering. The victim is the beautiful, innocent Belinda, her attacker is the dastardly Baron, and his weapon of choice is a pair of scissors. A hilarious mock epic, this is the sharp and witty tale of the most famous bad hair day in the history of literature, complete with Aubrey Beardsley's beautiful illustrations.
Review Quotes: "Brilliant . . . triumphant. Never has so great a poem emerged from so trivial a cause." --Peter Ackroyd
