Description

The Flyers revolves around two couples who both choose to wed somebody who are not from their social class. In order to prevent any intrusive busybodies, both couples decide to elope simultaneously. Prior to a chance encounter, neither party is aware of the other, which causes turmoil for the remainder of the story.

This novella occasionally reads like something by Thomas Hardy or P. G. Wodehouse. The amount of people in some scenes makes it occasionally difficult to follow, which is funny but also reminiscent of Charles Dickens.

The Flyers is an excellent addition to your antique humorous novella collection or home library.

Good to Know Before You Buy

Yes. Every photo on this page is the actual item you will receive. Not a stock photo, not a similar copy. What you see is what ships.

Honestly. This is vintage, so expect some age. When I find wear, writing, stains, loose pages, chips, or missing pieces, I note them and show them in the photos. Some marks add character. Some are just flaws. I tell you which is which so you can decide if this is the right one for you.

With care. Old books and fragile pieces are wrapped and boxed so they arrive the way they left me. Careful packing is one of the things buyers mention most in their reviews. Orders of $35 or more ship free.

Probably not. Everything here is one of a kind, and I rarely find the same item twice. Once it sells, it is gone. Vintage does not restock neatly.
