Lessons from Cats for Surviving Fascism
A GLOBE AND MAIL AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER Like On Tyranny, but with cats, this is the ultimate guide to channeling feline wisdom in the face of authoritarian nonsense. Cats, the original masters of stealth, sass, and strategic chaos, have been teaching us survival tactics for centuries--they just haven't been this explicit about it. Until now. Through humor, sharp insights, and unapologetic defiance, LESSONS FROM CATS FOR SURVIVING FASCISM lays out eleven essential cat-inspired strategies for resisting control and reclaiming power. From staying nimble and unpredictable to demanding what you need with the confidence of a hungry tabby, each chapter is packed with lessons that are as subversive as they are practical. Whether you're facing off against a system that thrives on control or just trying to make sense of a chaotic world, these lessons will arm you with the tools--and the attitude--you need to fight back. Cats don't ask for permission, and neither should you.

Satire, irony and humour have long been features of Persian literature's rich tradition, taking various forms from the coarse and obscene to the subtle and refined. Humour in Iran is a close and comprehensive study of satire and humour - in verse as well as prose - over the eleven-hundred years since the emergence of classical Persian literature. Combining Persian original texts with their English translations, it covers a range of texts and authors, from the lampoon in Ferdowsi's great epic of the ancient kings in the tenth century, through such master satirists as Obeyd Zakani, Sa'di, Rumi, Khayyam, Hafiz, Anvari, Sana'i, Khaqani, Suzani, Qa'ani, Yaghma, and so on. The book also includes twentieth century authors such as Iraj, Dehkhoda, Bahar, Eshqi, Aref, Hedayat, Jamalzadeh, Al-e Ahmad and more. A must read for scholars and students of humour and satire as well as Persian literature and Middle Eastern studies, and it will also appeal to general readers interested in ribald humour and satire.

The Hunting of the Snark
"The Hunting of the Snark" by Lewis Carroll is a nonsensical poem that follows a group of eccentric characters on a fantastical expedition to find a mysterious creature known as the Snark. Structured in eight "fits," or cantos, the poem blends whimsy, wordplay, and absurd logic in the tradition of Carroll's earlier works, such as "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." The narrative centers on the Bellman, who leads a bizarre crew-including a Baker, a Butcher, and a Beaver-across a surreal seascape and landscape in pursuit of their elusive quarry. Despite its playful tone, the poem subtly explores themes of uncertainty, the futility of human endeavor, and existential dread, culminating in a darkly ambiguous ending when one character vanishes upon encountering a particularly dangerous type of Snark: a Boojum. With its blend of humor and philosophical undertones, "The Hunting of the Snark" has intrigued readers and scholars alike, offering a rich terrain for interpretation within literary nonsense and Victorian satire. *** The Imaginarium of Lewis Carroll is a definitive collection celebrating the brilliant and whimsical literary legacy of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known to the world as Lewis Carroll. The creator of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass was far more than a children's author-he was a mathematician, logician, poet, photographer, and visionary storyteller whose works continue to enchant readers of all ages. This series gathers Carroll's most prominent and invites readers into a universe where logic dances with absurdity, language becomes a game, and imagination reigns supreme. Perfect for collectors, scholars, and dreamers alike, this series offers an enduring journey into one of literature's most curious and captivating minds.

It's all about holidays, festivals, family and Christmas; a time for swimming, a hit of backyard cricket or firing up the barbie.
