Anybody read "Please Sir!" by Frigyes Karinthy?
It's a quite funny book.
I liked it.Made me remember all the fun I had while I was young and attending elementary school,despite the book being almost a century old.

This is one of my favourite novellas, its out of print but you can read it online here http://mek.oszk.hu/00700/00770/00770.htm

Only me and one other guy on this board have read it.

Please Sir! by Frigyes Karinthy (father of the guy who wrote Metropole). It's kind of obscure and I'm not sure its for everyone but its cute and I loved it. It's just the musings and thoughts of a teenage boy in Budapest circa 1913.

Added bonus, the first chapter is written in Joyce-style stream of consciousness, which I think you all like

It's short, like 40 pages long in print.
