Sinopse

In "The Sayings of Mrs. Solomon," Helen Rowland presents a delightful collection of witty aphorisms and reflections on love, marriage, and the complexities of adult relationships. Written in an elegant yet accessible prose style, the book combines humor with keen insights, drawing upon the wisdom attributed to the biblical figure King Solomon. Rowland's literary context aligns with the early 20th-century trend of keen social observation, where her satirical and often humorous take offers a fresh perspective that resonates with the zeitgeist of women's evolving roles during her time. Helen Rowland, an American journalist and newspaper columnist, was known for her candid exploration of femininity in a changing society. Her personal experiences and her keen observations of societal norms provided her with a wealth of material for her writing. Rowland's ability to blend humor with poignant truths about love and relationships positions her as a forerunner in the genre of relationship advice literature, providing both validation and amusement for her readers. Rowland's "The Sayings of Mrs. Solomon" is a must-read for anyone seeking both entertainment and enlightenment about the nature of love and commitment. Its timeless wisdom, coupled with Rowland's sharp wit, makes it a treasure trove of insights that remain relevant today, inviting readers to re-examine their own relationships with humor and introspection.

  • Success with Chickens - The What Where and Why of Trouble-Free Chicken Keeping - cover

    Success with Chickens - The What...

    Who would have thought that keeping chickens would ever become a lifestyle objective rather than, as was the case a few years ago, a hobby generally indulged in at the bottom of the garden by a few middle-aged men? While the fact that it has can only be a good thing, without a basic understanding of what chickens need in terms of daily care, the newcomer to the hobby is as likely to experience failure as he is success. Even the more experienced can always learn something new and this book caters for both. 
    This practical, often anecdotal guide incorporates much of the author's 40 years experience as a chicken keeper, as well as taking advantage of the knowledge and experience of other, like-minded enthusiasts. Also included, either because of their relevance, or simply their ability to raise a wry smile, are several snippets taken from poultry books written during the first half of the 20th century.
