Sinopse

Guy Wetmore Carryl's 'Far from the Maddening Girls' is a delightful collection of satirical poems that cleverly parody classic literary works and societal constructs. Written in Carryl's signature humorous and light-hearted style, the poems explore themes of love, romance, and gender dynamics with a witty twist. This book is a humorous take on traditional poetry, making it accessible and enjoyable for readers of all backgrounds. Guy Wetmore Carryl, known for his wit and clever wordplay, was a prominent American humorist and poet of the late 19th century. His unique perspective and keen sense of humor are evident in 'Far from the Maddening Girls,' where he showcases his talent for poking fun at societal norms in a lighthearted manner. Carryl's social commentary is both insightful and entertaining, making his work a must-read for those who appreciate satire and wit. I highly recommend 'Far from the Maddening Girls' to readers who enjoy clever wordplay, satirical humor, and witty poetry. Carryl's unique voice and humorous perspective make this collection a delightful and entertaining read for anyone looking to be both amused and intellectually stimulated.

    S'Mother is a hilarious memoir based on 30 years of unsolicited advice, news updates, and opinions in the form of thousands of inappropriate, embarrassing, and utterly crazy letters showing the pathological extremes maternal instincts can take. Why is a grown woman so frantic that her adult son screw on his windows to keep out killer bees? Are adult trick-or-treaters really that much of a threat? Adam saved his mom's letters as proof this all happened and reproduces many of them in the book. And now, with time, perspective, and plenty of therapy, he acknowledges and accepts the comedy of it all and is proud to share his story with you, if for no other reason than to make you feel better about your own mother.

    Earth is vibrantly alive and full of wisdom for those who learn to listen.Earth has been reinventing itself for more than four billion years, keeping a record of its experiments in the form of rocks. Yet most of us live our lives on the planet with no idea of its extraordinary history, unable to interpret the language of the rocks that surround us. Geologist Marcia Bjornerud believes that our lives can be enriched by understanding our heritage on this old and creative planet.  Contrary to their reputation, rocks have eventful lives–and they intersect with our own in surprising ways. In Turning to Stone, Bjornerud reveals how rocks are the hidden infrastructure that keep the planet functioning, from sandstone aquifers purifying the water we drink to basalt formations slowly regulating global climate.  Bjornerud’s life as a geologist has coincided with an extraordinary period of discovery in the geosciences. From an insular girlhood in rural Wisconsin, she found her way to an unlikely career studying mountains in remote parts of the world and witnessed the emergence of a new understanding of the Earth as an animate system of rock, air, water and life. We are all, most fundamentally, Earthlings and we can find existential meaning and enduring wisdom in stone.

    This Birding Life - The Best of...

    This collection of essays “gives bird enthusiasts the next best thing to birdwatching, an eloquent and insightful consideration of birds and birding” (Publishers Weekly). 
     
    Stephen Moss’s collection of Guardian “Birdwatch” columns forms a fascinating picture of one man’s birding life: from early coot-watching as a young boy, through teenage cycle trips to Dungeness, to adult travels around the world as a TV producer working everywhere from the Gambia to Antarctica. 
     
    Drawing on nearly twenty years of columns for the Guardian, Stephen covers local, national and foreign birding encounters. From the (varying) excitement and peace of his chosen pursuit, to the growing uncertainties posed by climate change, the author brings an enthusiasm and sincerity to the subject that will energise even the most fair-weather of birdwatchers.
