High Brows: An Extravaganza of Manners – Mostly Bad is a 1929 novel by Scottish writer Bruce Marshall, published by Jarrolds.
[1] In a glowing review The Aberdeen Press and Journal stated, "One thinks of this novel of contemporary life in adjectives, a whole string of them.
"[2] Writing for The Daily News, Evelyn Underhill found High Brows to "pain[t] a light-hearted caricature of contemporary society".
A. T. Lloyd of The Daily Telegraph said, "The author is frequently handicapped by the process of applying satire to what is already caricature.
"[4] The Bystander's Ralph Straus praised the novel for being a "quite unusually diverting—a wickedly satirical commentary on affairs as they are, or, rather, as certain of the newspapers would have us believe they are, today".
