First published in 1924, the book is illustrated by the artist known as Fish and serves as a sequel to the author's earlier work, Deportmental Ditties. The collection is divided into two primary sections: The Day's Work and The World We Laugh In, exploring the mundane aspects of daily routines alongside observations on societal figures and domestic life. Graham captures the absurdity of early 20th-century life through a series of lighthearted poems, ranging from the trials of morning rituals like getting up and breakfasting to social commentary on neighbors, domestic staff, and the nuances of human behavior. This work reflects the quintessential British humor of the interwar period, offering readers a blend of social satire and playful cynicism that remains characteristic of Graham's literary legacy. It provides a unique historical lens into the etiquette, habits, and social expectations of the era, wrapped in rhythmic and accessible verse that continues to entertain those interested in classic light literature and satire.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":15,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/the-world-we-laugh-in-harry-graham/567455/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/the-world-we-laugh-in-harry-graham/567455.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Dipper","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-20","2026-10-13",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"Who is the author of The World We Laugh In?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The book was written by Harry Graham.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"Who provided the illustrations for the book?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"The book is illustrated by the artist known as Fish.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"When was this collection first published?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"The work was first published in 1924.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},567455,1792144156,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":14,"category_name":15,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":19,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":139,"language":140,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":141,"faqs":142,"seo_title":143,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":144,"read_time":145},1374404997633,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_a8503ba1806abce46bf441b54a3ca4cd","# THE WORLD WELAUGH INHARRY GRAHAM\n\nTHE WORLD WE LAUGH IN  \nBY THE SAME AUTHOR  \nRUTHLESS RHYMES FOR HEARTLESS HOMES  \nBALLADS OF THE BOER WAR  \nMISREPRESENTATIVE MEN  \nFISCAL BALLADS  \nVERSE AND WORSE  \nMISREPRESENTATIVE WOMEN  \nDEPORTMENTAL DITTIES  \nCANNED CLASSICS  \nTHE MOTLEY MUSE  \nRHYMES FOR RIPER YEARS  \nTHE BOLSTER BOOKLORD BELLINGER  \nTHE PERFECT GENTLEMANTHE COMPLETE SPORTSMANBIFFIN AND HIS CIRCLE  \nA GROUP OF sCOTTISH WOMENTHE MOTHER OF PARLIAMENTSSPLENDID FAILURES  \nTHE WORLD WELAUGH IN  \n(MORE DEPORTMENTAL DITTIES)  \nBY  \nHARRY GRAHAM  \nAUTHOR OP“RUTHLESS RHYMES FOR HEARTLESS HOMES,”\"DEPORTMENTAL DITTIEs,\"ETC.,ETC.  \nILLUSTRATED BY  \nFISH  \nFirst Published in I924  \nCONTENTS  \nI.THE DAY’S WORK  \nNO.  \nPAGE  \nI  \nI.GETTING UP .  \n2.THE BATH·  \n9  \n·  \nI5  \n3.DRESSING·  \n4.BREAKFAST .23  \n*  \n5.THE MORNING·3I  \n6.LUNCHEON .39  \n7·AT THE CINEMA47  \n·  \n·  \n8.DINNER .  .54  \nII.THE WORLD WE LAUGH IN  \nI.THE NEIGHBOURS .63  \n2.THE ORGANIST··69  \n3.
