--Samuel Beckett Funny, clever, bitter, incisive, bracing, loopy, elegant, elegiac: lovers of literature will find that this deck merits all those adjectives and many more. Observations, aphorisms, put-downs, joyful tidings, lame excuses, choice turns of phrase, and brave exhortations will also come to mind. A quotation with attribution appears on one side of each of the 48 cards; the other side features a brisk, yet accurate biography and an overview of the quote’s authorial source. In addition to book-knowledgeable, author Dona Budd is a witty and articulate writer. She has chosen her authors well, synopsizing their lives and works with insight, sympathy, and humor.
