Overview: The Feep stories are comic tall tales written in the 1940s for the undemanding pulp market, featuring a very broad parody of a Damon Runyon-esque character who speaks in extreme, largely made-up, racetrack tout slang. They are told by Feep to a “Bob” character who is the one actually recording the stories. Some of the stories in this volume are actually the tweaked versions of classics, and the wordplay that runs through them is often more strained than amusing. Same are the absurd character names, like “Hiyawatha Donglepootzer” and “Gorilla Gabface.” The “Feepese” takes some getting used as well, not simply because of the slang (women are “ginches,” for instance), but the fact that Feep speaks in a form of present tense at all times.
