The Power of Positive Pessimism
Proverbs For Our Times
Kandel
1973
This is one of those little gift books they sell at the card store as a kind of gift. It’s supposed to be clever and funny, but it doesn’t work for me. Of course, your mileage may vary. It’s an odd size and probably wouldn’t be a good choice, but there might be a reason to add it to the collection. I just can’t think of any reason right now.

Pessimism is underrated, but Frank Page’s illustrations are a turn off to me. Nothing absolutely bad, though.
Droll..very droll.
