Book Description:

A delicious satire about business, greed, ambition and cheese - Edam's great moment in world literature. First published in Dutch in 1933, Cheese is a comic classic in Holland and Belgium. It is a delightful period piece, but also timeless in its skewering of the pretensions and pomposity of businessmen, as relevant now as it was when it was written.
