The World's Best Dirty Limericks

Product Information

Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. The poem might belong to some old-fashioned, run-down pantomime show, with a brilliantined emcee wagging an extended index finger at his squirming middle-aged male patrons: “Ooh, you naughty boys, what were you thinking? If it’s great and naughty limericks you’re looking for, you should check out these collection of The 14 most famous limericks and 7 Kinky limericks about feet. Unlike his brilliant science fiction stories and his formidable volumes of non-fiction, Asimov’s dirty limericks are ineloquent, arhythmic, juvenile and tedious.

You must have quite a refined taste for historical and high wit, for you are about to be delighted (as well as tormented) by the word play! It’s easy to dismiss such questions as naïve, but the truth is that everyone, poets and poetry lovers included, occasionally entertains the feeling: a gathering annoyance with poetry’s indirection, its saying while not quite saying. I raised the question with Better World Books and although they could not supply a hardcover version they were extremely generous in making up for the descepency. ADD TO THE COLLECTION - Filled with 144 pages of hilarious, crazy, dirty and cheeky rhymes and illustrations, this is a great naughty addition to any 18+ book shelf! Prose has, the story reminds us, its own gorgeous and powerful concisions, but nothing to compare with the reach belonging to verse.

Consider the charming, nubile Nan from Nantucket of an anonymous American limerick that first appeared in The Princeton Tiger in 1902.

Granted, it’s traditional for limericks to exceed all standards of decency, but they ought to be at least as clever as they are offensive, and I don’t think that Asimov’s succeed.And of course such attempts to craft a language free of ambiguity, rendering a contract’s terms incontestable and inescapable, and hence immune to all vagaries of interpretation and intervention, are invariably doomed; even the most straightforward words, set out in the most straightforward fashion, engender mist and smoke, shadings and concealments.
