Críticas
Few of us have servants now, so for servants read tradesmen and note how far Swift's advice to the greedy, incompetent, profligate and shiftless still applies. The Directions are relentlessly, caustically subversive.A" The Times Directions to Servants strikes back at the master-servant dependency with an amusing blend of cynical parody and puerile insolence.A" The Independent Not only a cause of unending entertainment, but, in the final analysis, worthy of detailed study and, indeed, worth heeding, even in the most humble households, and on all sides of the Irish Sea, down to the letter.A" Colm Toibin
Reseña del editor
A tongue-in-cheek manual on how servants should cope with the demands of their masters and perform their tasks in ways that will best satisfy their indolence, wastefulness and greed, Directions to Servants takes a caustic and irreverent look at master-servant relations.
