Summary

Funny Election Moments explores the often-unintentional humor found within political campaigns, from bizarre speeches to campaign ads gone wrong. It examines why these moments occur and their impact on elections, revealing the delicate balance politicians must strike between seriousness and relatability.

 
The book highlights the art of the political gaffe, the evolution of comical campaign advertising, and how humor shapes public perception. For example, accidental insults can sometimes humanize a candidate, while other times, they can be career-ending.

 
Drawing from historical archives and campaign records, the book analyzes pivotal election cycles from the 20th century to today. It argues that these humorous moments are not trivial, but rather significant indicators of campaign strategies and societal values. The rise of television and social media has amplified these moments, making them even more crucial to understand.

 
The book adopts a chronological approach, categorizing funny moments by type and analyzing their influence on voter behavior, media coverage, and the overall tone of campaigns, ultimately addressing the ethical considerations of humor in politics.

‘Wise, sharp and naughty.’ THE OBSERVER 
‘Herein lie the men of Raven Smith. Each of them has left a mark, a memory, a stain, whether they meant to or not. Some hit deep, and I caught feels. Some I discarded like a clip-on neck tie’ 
From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Raven Smith’s Trivial Pursuits, comes a pin sharp, hilarious and incisive exploration of what it means to be a man in the modern day. 
This book is about men because, in an annoying way, everything is. Funny men, tall men, charming men. Stepdads, actual dads and ripped ‘sports dads’. Raven Smith has been trying to distil what it is about men that has kept him intrigued his whole life. 
Part memoir, part exploration of the peculiar dynamics and amorphous boundaries of masculinity, Raven looks unflinchingly at his own history, offering a cautious reverence of a life lived in parallel with other men. Blending the personal, the primal and the perennial, these are Raven Smith’s men in all their infuriating, labyrinthine complexity. 
In Raven Smith's Men, the author, the Sunday Times bestselling author, explores the complex world of men, their relationships, and the social constructs that define them. His essays, a mix of self-help and scientific studies, provide a fresh look at gender and sexuality. 
For fans of Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love), Nick Grimshaw (Soft Lad), David Sedaris (Happy-Go-Lucky), Nora Ephron (The Most of Nora Ephron), and Amy Key (Arrangements in Blue).

  • Too Good to Be Altogether Lost - Rediscovering Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House Books - cover

    Too Good to Be Altogether Lost -...

    Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the well-known Little House series, wrote stories from her childhood because they were "too good to be altogether lost." With the release of NBC's Little House on the Prairie series in 1974, Wilder was well on her way to becoming an international literary superstar. Simultaneously, however, the novels themselves began to slip from view, replaced by an onslaught of assumptions and questions about Wilder's values and politics and even about the books' authenticity. From the 1980s, a slow but steady critical crescendo began to erode Wilder's literary reputation. 
 
 
 
In Too Good to Be Altogether Lost, Wilder expert Pamela Smith Hill dives back into the Little House books, closely examining Wilder's text, her characters, and their stories. Hill reveals that these gritty, emotionally complex novels depict a realistic coming of age for a girl in the American West. This realism in Wilder's novels, once perceived as a fatal flaw, can lead to essential discussions not only about the past but about the present—and the underlying racism young people encounter when reading today. Hill's fresh approach to Wilder's books shows how this author forever changed the literary landscape of children's and young adult literature in ways that remain vital and relevant today.

    The Memphis Underworld King   Diggs Nolen's name was the byword for crime in 1920s Memphis. As a child, he dreamed of becoming a swashbuckling outlaw. He turned his back on a promising career, his family and consorted with the worst elements of society. Under the tutelage of train robber Frank Holloway, Nolen became a notorious con artist. Later, he and his gun-slinging wife built an empire out of selling narcotics and trafficking stolen goods. Law enforcement caught Nolen, but they could not hold him. Nolen escaped from Leavenworth Prison, led the largest jailbreak in Memphis history and confounded prosecutors with legal wranglings. Author Patrick O'Daniel details Nolen's quixotic quest for criminal fame that earned him the title King of the Memphis Underworld.
