Of Cats and Men is a stylish illustrated gift book from an award-winning artist profiling notable cat-loving men throughout history in words and pictures. Sam Kalda presents a fresh approach to the cat book trend that is smart, sweet and driven by engaging and beautiful illustrations.

The 30 men profiled range from writers and artists such as Haruki Murakami, T.S.

Scandinavians are cooler, sexier and more stylish than the rest of us. They have a higher standard of living, greater economic opportunity and equality, the world&rsquo;s best restaurants, and moody TV dramas involving murders and jumpers.But did you know, amidst the obsession with hygge and IKEA, that Scandinavian sayings are absolutely BIZARRE?!Take the Swedish &lsquo;Skita i det bl&aring; sk&aring;pet&rsquo;, which roughly translates as: &lsquo;You&rsquo;ve done a crap in the blue cupboard&rsquo; (&lsquo;You&rsquo;ve messed things up now&rsquo;). And in Norway, if you&rsquo;re slow on the uptake, the locals would suspect you were &lsquo;born behind a brown cheese&rsquo; (&lsquo;&Aring; v&aelig;re f&oslash;dt bak en brunost&rsquo;).This witty, enlightening book will give you 50 phrases you never knew you needed in your life, explaining their origin and literal translations, with gorgeous colour illustrations throughout.

In time for the 250th anniversary of her birth, this book brings to life quotes from all of Austen’s beloved novels, as well as her private writings. The perfect gift for any Janeite, or anyone in need of some wise words to live by.
