Books with title Our Mr. Wrenn: The Romantic Adventures of a Gentle Man

"The ticket-taker of the Nickelorion Moving-Picture Show is a public personage; who stands out on Fourteenth Street; New York; wearing a gorgeous light-blue coat of numerous brass buttons. He nods to all the patrons; and his nod is the most cordial in town. Mr. Wrenn used to trot down to Fourteenth Street; passing ever so many other shows; just to get that cordial nod; because he had a lonely furnished room for evenings; and for daytime a tedious job that always made his head stuffy." -an excerpt

He was a social critic who punctured American complacency with his broadly drawn, widely popular satirical novels. Our Mr. Wrenn was his first novel.
