Feb 20th, 2015 at 5:20 PM. My edition: Penguin Modern Classics. I noticed this the other day in one of those Top Ten Funniest Books Ever list. And I also read an old review which said you shouldnt read it sitting on the bus because your howls of laughter would make people look at you funny. While Tent of Miracles.
