The Glugs of Gosh
is a satirical gallop through the world of the inhabitants of Gosh, a world that seems to be suspiciously full of the same frailties and absurdities as our own ... From the pride and petulance of kings, judges, mayors and teachers to the dangers of importing luxury goods and exporting weapons, C.J. Dennis exhibits an unerring eye for immortalising the little failings and idiosyncrasies of human nature in entertaining, rollicking verse.
Published here with an introduction by John Derum and Hal Gye's original illustrations from 1917, this piquant Australian classic is fun for children and adults alike.
C.J. Dennis is best known as the author of the classic The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke, as well as many other titles such as Doreen, Digger Smith, Jim of the Hills, A Book for Kids and The Moods of Ginger Mick.
