| Summary | "The Laughter of Toffee" by Charles F. Myers is a comedic novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The story follows Marc Pillsworth, a businessman whose day takes a surreal turn after he inadvertently ingests a miracle elixir, leading him into a whirlwind of chaos involving jealousy, misunderstandings, and encounters with eccentric characters. The chaotic spring day turns into a madcap journey that finds Marc grappling with an unexpected and troublesome predicament involving his wife and a portrait artist. At the start of the novel, Marc is depicted as a downcast businessman, burdened by feelings of jealousy toward his wife's outing with the charismatic artist, Mario. As he navigates the city, Marc's situation takes a bizarre twist when he interacts with a series of quirky characters, including a bumbling druggist and an illicit postcard salesman. The introduction hints at the unfolding absurdities as Marc finds himself unable to escape the chaos sparked by Toffee, a manifestation of his subconscious desires. As he grapples with increasing complications, including his newfound "X-ray eyes," the stage is set for a zany and unpredictable adventure, blending elements of fantasy with humor.
