| Summary |
Written by the author of Peter Pan, My Lady Nicotine was first published in 1890. J. M. Barrie tackles his smoking habit by writing this humorous volume of essays about his first cigarette, smoking friends, experiments with cigars and pipes and his final abandonment of the practice. Full of wit and funny characterizations of smokers and nonsmokers alike, Barrie's work continues to resonate with readers of today. |
