Sinopse

In 'Fibble, D.D.', Irvin S. Cobb presents a humorous yet poignant exploration of the quirks of human nature through the misadventures of its protagonist, Reverend J. Wyckoff Fibble. The novel employs a playful writing style that blends clever satire with rich character development, deeply rooting itself in the early 20th-century American social landscape. Cobb's adept use of wit captures the absurdities of small-town life and the contradictions of purported piety, making it a significant commentary on both the religious and cultural mores of the time. With its engaging narrative and vibrant dialogue, 'Fibble, D.D.' stands out as a unique contribution to the Americana genre. Irvin S. Cobb, an esteemed journalist and writer, was renowned for his incisive humor and keen social observations, shaped by his upbringing in Paducah, Kentucky. His vast experiences, from penning bite-sized essays to crafting engaging short stories, provided him with a unique lens through which to examine human follies. Cobb's personal encounters with religion and rural life enriched this narrative, allowing him to masterfully weave irony and humor into serious social critiques. For readers seeking an insightful blend of humor and social commentary, 'Fibble, D.D.' is a compelling choice. Cobb's sharp wit will resonate with fans of classic American literature, making this novel not only an entertaining read but also a reflective mirror on societal norms. Dive into the amusing escapades of Reverend Fibble and discover the timeless truths nestled within the laughter.

    The sequel nobody wants. After a decade of the Tories, could it get any worse? Spoiler – it does. 
     
    Towards the end of 2021, Britain had been frogmarched into an escalating series of surreal calamities. Brexit was a disaster, the NHS was in crisis, the government was bathed head-to-toe in impropriety, senior Tories were still acting as though the public purse was their personal feed-trough, and the air crackled with anger about PartyGate. All of which led to an inglorious start to 2022: the year the UK saw two monarchs, three prime ministers and four chancellors. 
     
    From Boris Johnson, who crashed our international reputation and handed billions to his mates so they could ineptly fight a pandemic while he stayed at home, shagging and acting as a super-spreader; to Liz Truss, a drive-by prime minister who managed to kill off the queen and crash the economy in a single week. And now we’re led by Rishi Sunak, who doesn’t know how to use a credit card, drives a pretend car, and grinningly promises even more poverty. 
     
    Four Chancellors and a Funeral delivers more of Russell Jones’s signature scathing wit, combining a detailed historical record of 2021 and 2022, with acerbic commentary, all of it leavened by jokes at the seemingly endless maelstrom of failures, nincompoops and hypocrisies.

    Told through a series of larger-than-life snapshots, a hilarious memoir in essays about love, sex, marriage, motherhood, bikinis, and loving your body, no matter what size you are from the acclaimed blogger and body image advocate. 
    Brittany Gibbons has been a plus size her whole life. But instead of hiding herself in the shadows of thinner women, Brittany became a wildly popular blogger and national spokesmodel—known for stripping on stage at TedX and standing in Times Square in a bikini on national television, and making skinny people everywhere uncomfortable. 
    Talking honestly about size and body image on her popular blog, brittanyherself.com, she has ignited a national conversation. Now in her first book, she shares hilarious and painfully true stories about her life as a weird overweight girl growing up in rural Ohio, struggling with dating and relationships, giving the middle finger to dieting, finding love with a man smaller than her, accidentally having three kids, and figuring out the secret to loving her curves and becoming a nationally recognized body image advocate. And there’s sex, lots of it! 
    Fat Girl Walking isn’t a diet book. It isn’t one of those former fat people memoirs about how someone battled, and won, in the fight against fat. Brittany doesn’t lose all the weight and reveal the happy, skinny girl that’s been hiding inside her. Instead, she reminds us that being chubby doesn’t mean you’ll end up alone, unhappy, or the subject of a cable medical show. What’s important is learning to love your shape. With her infectious humor and soul-baring honesty, Fat Girl Walking reveals a life full of the same heartbreak, joy, oddity, awkwardness, and wonder as anyone else’s. Just with better snacks.
