This novel, based on Milne's successful play of the same title, is a gentle comedy in the style of George Bernard Shaw. In "Mr Pim Passes By," the fumbling Pim inadvertently turns the Marden household upside down, setting in motion a farcical chain of events involving marriage, willingness to change, and the very definition of morality. Milne remains best known for his Winnie-the-Pooh stories, although he was quite successful as a playwright, fiction writer, and humorist.

Autorenporträt
Alan Alexander Milne was an English author best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for children's poetry. Milne was primarily a dramatist before the enormous popularity of Winnie-the-Pooh eclipsed all of his earlier work. Milne fought in both World Wars, as a lieutenant in the Royal Warwickshire Regiment in WWI and a captain in the Home Guard in WWII. Alan Alexander Milne was born in Kilburn, London, on January 18, 1882, to Jamaican-born John Vine Milne and Sarah Marie Milne. He was raised at Henley House School, 6/7 Mortimer Road (now Crescent), Kilburn, a small independent school owned by his father. H. G. Wells was one of his teachers from 1889 to 1890. Milne attended Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he received a mathematics scholarship and graduated with a B.A. in Mathematics in 1903. He edited and wrote for Granta, a student publication. He cooperated with his brother Kenneth on articles that appeared under the letters AKM.
