A collection of photos showing quotation marks used on signs, placards, notes, and more, in which the writer's intention is completely subverted by the often bizarre and always hilarious use of the quotation marks. These images have been amassed by the author of the wildly popular "Blog" of "Unnecessary" quotation marks, with 80% new material as well as the site's "best of" photos. Here is punctuation as we love it best: Doing horrible damage to the English language.

This all‐new collection of COLOR and black and white comic strips loosely follows the adventures of a pair of cats as they explore the world around them, indoors and out. Adventures include taking a nap, licking a shoe, attacking dust particles, hiding in the cabinets —all adorably rendered in Brown’s immediate and irresistible style.

The allure of turn‐of‐the‐century Paris and the glory of the Eiffel Tower are perennially beloved—this volume presents them in a lovely new light. Originally published in 1902, THIRTY‐SIX VIEWS OF THE EIFFEL TOWER were inspired by French artist Henri Riviere’s love of Japanese art—specifically Hokusai’s famous 36 Views of Mount Fuji. A blend of Japonisme‐inspired technique, this fully illustrated book features over 36 photos of the tower both during and after its construction.
Legendary music photographer Ross Halfin has documented Metallica for nearly 25 years, from their beginnings as a scrappy, furious garage band to their current status as the heaviest and most popular metal band in the world. METALLICA collects 250 of Halfin’s amazing images, taken over the years with access granted exclusively to him as friend to the band. Including a foreword by James Hetfield, METALLIC is a powerful and definitive collection of images and text and a must‐have for the band’s fans around the world.
Age is inevitable, no matter how much Botox, peroxide, or surgical procedures we pay for. It’s not always fun, but it can be funny. Lines explores the hysterical evolution of women through the decades—from awkward teen years to Quarter‐lifers in crisis to the unmistakable realization that if you’re wearing a certain outfit in your 40s, you might be a cougar. With her trademark wry, self‐deprecating wit and eye‐catching cartoons, Donnelly celebrates the fact that laugh lines do come with age—but so does wisdom.
