The Comedy of Sentiment: A Novel is a satirical novel that critiques the sentimentalism of popular literature in the late 19th century. Max Simon Nordau, a German author, wrote the book to challenge the belief that literature should indulge in raw sentimentality. The book features characters who are fond of sentimental literature but are irony-proof and are often the targets of ridicule.
