The  Glugs  of  Gosh 

by  C.  J.  Dennis  (1876-1938) 

First  published  in  1917,  The 
Glugs  of  Gosh  satirizes 
Australian  life  at  the  start  of 
the  twentieth  century  -  but  the 
absurdities  it  catalogs  seem 
just  as  prevalent  at  the  start  of 
the  twenty-first.  The  foolish- 
ness of  kings,  the  arrogance  of  the  elite,  the  gullibility  of 
crowds,  the  pride  of  the  self-righteous,  the  unthinking  following 
of  tradition  -  all  find  themselves  the  targets  of  C.  J.  Dennis' 
biting  wit.
