Sinopsis

In 'The Willow Walk' by Sinclair Lewis, the author delves into the lives of small-town America, exploring the complexities of human relationships and the societal pressures that shape them. Lewis's vivid and realistic prose captures the essence of the Midwest in the early 20th century, painting a picture of a community struggling with modernity and tradition. The book reflects Lewis's keen observations of human nature and his disdain for conformity, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in American literature of the period. Sinclair Lewis, a Nobel Prize-winning author known for his social commentary and satire, drew inspiration for 'The Willow Walk' from his own experiences growing up in rural America. His sharp wit and incisive criticism of societal norms shine through in this novel, challenging readers to reflect on their own values and beliefs. I highly recommend 'The Willow Walk' to readers who appreciate insightful commentary on small-town life, beautifully crafted prose, and thought-provoking narratives that explore the human condition in a changing world.

    Well, now you've gone and done it America. You've elected Donald K. Trump President and the U.S. will never again be the same! The problem for all of us is that he's got plans, lots of them--the list reads like a bad acid trip: Nominating Bernie Madoff for Secretary of the Treasury; "Trumpifying" the Constitution; making personal real estate deals with Vladimir Putin; staging a hostile takeover of one of America's great news magazines  - to name just a few. In this "inaugural" (and wholly fictitious) issue of Trump TIME Magazine, President-Elect Trump promises to re-make America in his own image - and it ain't pretty. Don't like it? Move to Canada, losers!

    The #1 New York Times–bestselling author takes an “unfailingly funny” look at global problems and offers his own political perspective (The Washington Times).   In this volume, the political humorist and former National Lampoon editor-in-chief attacks fashionable worries—all those terrible problems that are constantly on our minds and in the news, but about which most of us have no real clue—and crisscrosses the globe in search of solutions to today’s most vexing issues, including overpopulation, famine, plague, and multiculturalism. In the process, he produces a hilarious and informative book which ensures that the concept of political correctness will never be the same again.   “One of the funniest, most insightful, dead-on-the-money books of the year.” —Los Angeles Times   “O’Rourke’s best work since Parliament of Whores.” —The Houston Post   “Bottom line: Buy the book.” —The Wall Street Journal

    “Uncovers evidence of covert Canadian usurpation . . .Thankfully, Colburn has some tips on identifying these stealthy yet tidy marauders in our midst.” —Seattle Weekly 
     
    Canadians are peaceable, friendly, unassuming, and adorable. They’re also secretly in control of nearly every aspect of life in the Southernmost Canadian territory known as the United States.  
     
    This hilarious illustrated compendium of real facts and wild assertions traces a vast, maple-leaf conspiracy that plays up Canada’s self-effacing second fiddle image to the U.S. while it creates and clandestinely controls nearly everything Americans hold dear, from Superman to basketball to William Shatner to macaroni and cheese.  
     
    With everyday life in the U.S. already as much as 70% Canadian, and our music, movies, and TV shows filled with subliminal pro-Canadian messages, the authors of So, You Want to Be Canadian reveal that in actuality, you already are. 
     
    “The premise is that Canadians have gotten their overly polite (and no doubt well groomed) mitts on everything. The U.S. of Eh? includes lists of many Canadian things—hotties, music, actors, inventions—as well as lots of general silliness about the ‘maple leaf conspiracy.’” —January Magazine
