Moist von Lipwig was a con artist and a fraud and a man faced with a life choice: be hanged, or put Ankh-Morpork's ailing postal service back on its feet. It was a tough decision. But he's got to see that the mail gets though, come rain, hail, sleet, dogs, the Post Office Workers Friendly and Benevolent Society, the evil chairman of the Grand Trunk Semaphore Company, and a midnight killer. Getting a date with Adora Bell Dearheart would be nice, too. Maybe it'll take a criminal to succeed where honest men have failed, or maybe it's a death sentence either way. Or perhaps there's a shot at redemption in the mad world of the mail, waiting for a man who's prepared to push the envelope...

The author, Matthias Perner (M.A.), was born in Hannover (Germany) and studied linguistics, politics and sociology. He focused on communicational aspects of spoken language and at the same time found himself teaching English and German. It was then that his interest in lexicology, semantics and humour research was aroused and he started collecting data for the present work. Its structural taxonomy and clear analysis of linguistic joke mechanisms and their semantic and textlinguistic formation combines Greimas’ approach to structural semantics with modern textlinguistic theories, empirical research and detailed aspects of lexicological semantics. In combination with a very clear and detailed explanation of the concepts involved plus a vast corpus of jokes this book presents a innovative and concise look at jokes both for linguists and those who are interested in humorous aspects of language.

From the Pulitzer Prize winning author of Crimes of the Heart comes this poignant but unromanticized story of the hard lives of pioneers on the high plains of Wyoming in the 1860's. Macon and Bess are two mail-order brides, lured to the West by the promise of new beginnings through marriage to men theyve never met. While waiting for their respective husbands-to-be, one bubbling with optimism, the other mousy and plain, the two women become instant best friends. As Abundance follows the two women through their friendship and adventures for the next 25 years, this Western epic unearths the dark underside of American mythology. A full-cast production featuring: Ed Begley Jr., Gary Cole, Amy Madigan, Steven Weber, JoBeth Williams

“Do you not know Jean Paul, our great writer? I have learnt more counterpoint from him than from my music teacher”. His “Vorschule der Ästhetik” with its extensive treatment of humour probably occasioned Schumann to think of giving a piano work the title “Humoreske” – thus giving birth to a new musical genre. The “romantic humour” is not, however, aimed at humour in a modern sense of the word, but rather at a portrayal of the fragility and contradictory nature of the human condition. As if in a kaleidoscope, Schumann juxtaposes the most diverse elements of form and moods. Ernst Herttrich’s revision reflects the latest scholarly findings for this unusual work.

As with the three sonatas that form opus 2, the trio of works forming opus 10, written between 1796 and 1798, offers a collection of three sonatas with entirely different characters. With its distinctive musical humour the middle sonata has a particular connection with the opus 2.This humour comes particularly from unusual formal experiments with motivic-thematic elements that led a contemporary reviewer to reproach the master for being “a man of genius” on the one hand, but also for allowing himself too often the right to “wildly pile up his ideas”.

And when that happens - well, who knows what the consequences could be...Laugh-out-loud funny, achingly relatable, but with a heart of gold, and warmth running through every page. This is the perfect read for anyone who has way too many balls in the air! The novel may or may not have been inspired by real life... Praise for Emma Murray: 'If you've ever despaired of the school WhatsApp group, torn your hair out over what to cook for the kids' dinner, again, and wonder why your beloved still believes in the Laundry Fairy, The Juggle is for you. Emma Murray's clever, wise and achingly funny novel about life as a modern mum will make you grin with recognition - and not feel alone. It's not just you, then!

The characters are superbly written, and I really hope we get to read more from Saoirse.' Readers loved Emma's first book 'I really related to the Saoirse, the main character in this book.

'Emma Murray has written a 5-star 'how-to' book on being part of the village ... 'it takes a village to raise a child' but it also takes that village to raise up a mom!' 'A fabulous read that had me hooked and also made me feel glad that my children were born prior to the arrival of Facebook and social media. But a refreshing read and one I would definitely recommend.'
