Set in the vibrant backdrop of 1920s and 1930s New York City, the story follows Archy, a cockroach with a poetic past, and his friend Mehitabel, an alley cat. Through their humorous adventures, the duo offers a satirical look at urban life. Archy's unique style, characterized by his use of free verse without capital letters, stems from his inability to use the shift key while typing on an old typewriter. This collection, first published in 1927, showcases the whimsical and insightful poems that emerged from their escapades.
