'Mr. Hodge & Mr. Hazard' is a 1928 novel by Elinor Morton Wylie. Set in the 1830s, this tale revolves around a particular instant in the life of a poet (based on Shelley) who has spent 20 years fighting vehemently for the improvement of mankind but who has become too liberal for the alienating England of his day. Contents include: 'Funeral Of A Mouse'', ''A Coffin The Neighbourhood'', ''Warm Wine And Water', 'Ambush At A Breakfast-Table', 'Dried Peas And Rusty Needles', 'Specific For A Fever', 'Camelopard At A Party', 'Skeleton In Armour', etc. Elinor Morton Wylie (1885-1928) was an American novelist, poet, and poetry editor of 'Vanity Fair' magazine between 1923 and 1925. Her life was one of scandal, and she gained notoriety for her numerous marriages and affairs. Wylie was an great admirer of the British Romantic poets, particularly Shelley. This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an essay by Martha Elizabeth Johnson.
