Lyre and Lancet by F. Anstey Book Summary

Thomas Anstey Guthrie was an English novelist and journalist, who wrote his comic novels under the pseudonym F. Anstey. Guthrie became an important member of the staff of Punch magazine, in which his voces populi and his humorous parodies of a reciter's stock-piece represent his best work. Many of Anstey's stories have been adapted into theatrical productions, motion pictures. In later life, Anstey spent a good deal of time overseeing dramatizations of his works, and later film adaptations. According to the critics the fantasy of Guthrie's stories is a lighthearted critique of middle-class British society during the Victorian era.
This book includes a numerous variety of fairy adventures and mythological creatures, of course, logical behavior of children and fairy-tale characters, not forgotten the moral and educational role of the book. All this is described a light, capacious and ironic language of the great master.
