Humorous Stories

Children and adults, men and women. Retrogrades and progressives. Young men and ladies, husbands and wives, passionate lovers and cunning seductresses, the poor and the rich, the people, aristocrats, and the intelligentsia. All of them find themselves in comical and absurd situations, and Taffy looks down on each of them—with pity and condescension, but more often—with subtle irony. Taffy's wit is truly magnificent, and her heartfelt humorous stories are completely sincere, which is why they continue to enjoy well-deserved popularity even now.
