Overview

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 159, August 4th, 1920" by Various is a comedic periodical that reflects the social and political landscape of the early 20th century. Published in the aftermath of World War I, during the early 1920s, the book offers a satirical commentary on contemporary issues, cultural phenomena, and public sentiments in post-war Britain. The content of this volume includes a collection of humorous articles, illustrations, and poems that lampoon various societal norms and events of the time. Through witty observations on topics like railway fares, the impact of drought in India and Africa, and even the curious case of a delayed Christmas card, the writers capture the absurdities of daily life in a changing world. Characters range from everyday citizens and politicians to fictional representations of societal archetypes, all rendered with a light-hearted tone that invites laughter while provoking thought about the quirks and challenges of contemporary society.
