  What would you say if someone told you they had come face to face with God? That God, in physical form had told them the mysteries of the universe, the details of his divine plan. Would you want to know?At The Ritzy, just off Oldham Street, there is such a man. The Ritzy itself is the kind of place that the wise avoid and the desperate always seem to find. A dive that calls itself a casino and which is really nothing more than a smoky, converted pool hall. Not the place one would expect to find God.Yet, with its dark corners and shadowy figures, The Ritzy might well be just the place to hear God’s plan, because far from being sweetness and light, it is a very dark thing indeed. Plumbing the same depths of existential horror frequented by Lovecraft, Fair and Foul is a story that will haunt you long after you have finished reading.

This inviting and entertaining story helps early readers understand for themselves that a mom who has fresh brain casserole in the oven instead of her usual meatloaf is probably not their mommy anymore . . . This utterly twisted and incredibly funny take on the classic children’s book genre tells an entertaining story in rhyming text even as it teaches other telltale signs that mom has been bitten by a zombie! Rabid zombie fans will be highly entertained by this hilarious parody that adult readers are sure to love as much as the real children books they enjoyed as kids.Praise for That’s Not Your Mommy Anymore “Younger kids might be a little frightened by the idea of a formerly loving mother who now wants to dine on human flesh, but older kids and grown ups will get a kick out of this tale.” —GeekDad, Wired.com

  Published to commemorate its 75th anniversary, The World Is Round brings back into print the classic story created by Gertrude Stein and Clement Hurd.Written in her unique prose style, Gertrude Stein's  The World Is Round  chronicles the adventures of a young girl named Rose—a whimsical tale that delights in wordplay and sound while exploring the ideas of personal identity and individuality. This stunning volume replicates the original 1939 edition to a T, including all of Clement Hurd's original blue-and-white art printed on the rose-pink paper that Stein insisted upon. Also featured here are two essays that provide an inside view to the making of the book. The first, a foreword by Clement Hurd's son, author and illustrator Thacher Hurd, includes previously unpublished photographs and sheds light on a creative family life in Vermont, where his father and mother, author Edith Thacher Hurd, often collaborated on children's books. The second essay, an afterword by Edith Thacher Hurd, takes readers behind the scenes of the making of The World Is Round, including the numerous letters exchanged between Hurd and Stein as well as images of Stein with the real-life Rose and her white poodle, Love.
