This is a page from the book Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can’t Avoid by Lemony Snicket, the pseudonym for the author most known for the Series of Unfortunate Events books. I’ve loved this book since I first picked it up off the bargain book table, as it is sadly out-of-print. Thank you to Mattie for sending me the Dirty Pretty Things post that prompted me to post this.
