Produktbeschreibung

What the Witches of New York City personally told me, Doesticks, you will find written in this volume, without the slightest exaggeration or perversion. I set out now with no intention of misrepresenting anything that came under my observation in collecting the material for this book, but with an honest desire to tell the simple truth about the people I encountered, and the prophecies I paid for.

Autorenporträt

Mortimer Neal Thomson, born on September 2, 1832, in Riga, New York, was an American journalist and humorist, best known for his work under the pseudonym Q. K. Philander Doesticks. Raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Thomson became a prominent figure in 19th-century American literature, noted for his satirical and humorous style. He often used his writing to critique societal norms and institutions. His works, including The Witches of New York, showcased his sharp wit, blending humor with social commentary. Thomson's writing was highly regarded for its comedic approach to serious issues. He died prematurely on June 25, 1875, in New York City at the age of 42. Despite his early death, Thomson left a lasting impact on American humor and satire, and his works remain significant for their critique of 19th-century society and their unique blend of wit and observation. His pseudonym, Q. K. Philander Doesticks, became synonymous with his humorous approach to the world, and his legacy endures in the realm of American literary humor.
