Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks

Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks Book Description

A compendium of beautiful thoughts for women of taste and splendor.

Edward Monkton, perhaps better known as the U.K.'s top-selling living poet Giles Andreae, pairs a witty and quirky writing style with simple yet elegant illustrations to celebrate the four bastions of femininity, namely: shoes, chocolate, purses, and clothes.

Be it a handbag of glory, the shoes of salvation, the beautiful frock, or the kingdom of chocolate, Monkton fluidly expounds the virtues of many a lady's desires:

"Buy me, Lady," said the frock,

"and I will make you into a

BEAUTIFUL and WHOLE and

COMPLETE Human Being."

"Do not be SILLY," said the Man,

"for a frock alone cannot do that."

"TRUE," said the Lady. "I will

have the Shoes and the Bag as well."

Edward Monkton has contributed to Shoes, Chocs, Bags, and Frocks as an author. Edward Monkton is the alter ego of urbane Eton- and Oxford-educated Giles Andreae. Philosopher, poet, artist, and all-round interesting fellow, Giles is no stranger to success. Purple Ronnie, his first creation, has made Giles the United Kingdom's top-selling living poet and an icon of contemporary popular culture. He calls Notting Hill in London home.
