Fusion of a cartoon and verse that can be humerous or thoughtful. I was introduced to them when I was a Woodbrooke, the British Quaker college in 1979 by the the Dainish cook who ruled the kitchen but used grooks to open the meal
Delightful aphorisms and clever poetry. The author is a mathematician, also. The poetry is translated well into English.
