A fresh, faithful reintroduction to a luminous corner of 18th century Britain. Deformities Of Samuel Johnson, Selected From His Works gathers a witty, human snapshot of a towering figure through a curated set of biographical sketches and satirical biographical sketches, sprinkled with literary anecdotes that illuminate the man behind the legend. This volume offers more than a simple reprint. It presents a concise, engaging collection that underscores Johnson's place in eighteenth century literature and Georgian England, while inviting casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike to explore the anatomy of fame, temper, and intellect. The prose is intimate and playful, yet rigorous enough to serve as an academic reader resource for those studying Johnson biographers and the wider world of biography anthologies. A genuine cultural artefact, the work carries historical resonance for students of 18th century Britain, biography, and humour essays. It is an ideal gateway for book clubs and reading circles seeking brisk, thought-provoking discussion with rich historical texture. The chosen material functions as a bridge between the everyday life of the period and the enduring craft of biographical storytelling. Selling points you can feel in every page: out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions; restored for today's and future generations; and more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
