Do opposites actually attract? 'Head and Shoulders' features the intellectual Horace, who is totally absorbed in his studies at Princeton, but falls for a spirited dancer despite trying to remain focused. As Horace tries to be more like his new love interest and she tries to adapt her personality to better fit him, they slowly find themselves living the other's life - for better or for worse, who knows. This short story was adapted into a silent film, 'The Chorus Girl's Romance'. Perfect for fans of ́The Great Gatsby ́. F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and the author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’, with the latter having been made into a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan. Skillfully capturing the prosperity of post-World War One America, his writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and his wife Zelda Fitzgerald were at the centre of.

The Vegetable; Or, From President to Postman is F. Scott Fitzgerald’s only play. The 1923 comedy is a political satire in which the ironic stage directions excel. Jerry Frost has always aspired to become a postman. He feels trapped in his marriage and blames his overly-critical wife, Charlotte, for never having achieved his dreams. Charlotte claims that if Jerry had any real drive, he would pursue the presidency. Following an evening of very heavy drinking, Jerry dreams that he is the President, and begins to question what he truly wants in life. “Any man who doesn’t want to get on in the world, to make a million dollars, and maybe even park his toothbrush in the White House, hasn’t got as much to him as a good dog has – he’s nothing more or less than a vegetable.” The Vegetable explores the idea of the everyman becoming President. Fitzgerald addresses themes of aspiration and life’s meaning, presenting the argument that so long as you are following your dreams, you are doing enough. The political satire reads better than it translates to the stage due to Fitzgerald’s humorous stage directions. Best known for his novels and short stories that encapsulate the Jazz Age, Fitzgerald displays a new side to his writing, with his sharp wit being highlighted in this 1923 play. Read & Co. Classics has republished The Vegetable; Or, From President to Postman in a brand new edition, featuring a specially-commissioned biography of the writer and an introductory essay on Jazz Age literature. The perfect volume for fans of Fitzgerald who wish to read more of his lesser-known work.

"Time travel, UFOs, mysterious planets, stigmata, rock-throwing poltergeists, huge footprints, bizarre rains of fish and frogs-nearly a century after Charles Fort's Book of the Damned was originally published, the strange phenomenon presented in this book remains largely unexplained by modern science. Through painstaking research and a witty, sarcastic style, Fort captures the imagination while exposing the flaws of popular scientific explanations. Virtually all of his material was compiled and documented from reports published in reputable journals, newspapers and periodicals because he was an avid collector. Charles Fort was somewhat of a recluse who spent most of his spare time researching these strange events and collected these reports from publications sent to him from around the globe. This was the first of a series of books he created on unusual and unexplained events and to this day it remains the most popular. If you agree that truth is often stranger than fiction, then this book is for you"--Taken from Good Reads website.

This is the "living" room of Jerry Frost's house. It is evening. The room (and, by implication, the house) is small and stuffy-it's an awful bother to raise these old-fashioned windows; some of them stick, and besides it's extravagant to let in much cold air, here in the middle of March. I can't say much for the furniture, either. Some of it's instalment stuff, imitation leather with the grain painted on as an after-effect, and some of it's dingily, depressingly old. That bookcase held "Ben Hur" when it was a best-seller, and it's now trying to digest "A Library of the World's Best Literature" and the "Wit and Humor of the United States in Six Volumes." That couch would be dangerous to sit upon without a map showing the location of all craters, hillocks, and thistle-patches. And three dead but shamefully unburied clocks stare eyelessly before them from their perches around the walls.

In this witty, often terrifying work of cultural criticism, the author of Amusing Ourselves to Death chronicles our transformation into a Technopoly: a society that no longer merely uses technology as a support system but instead is shaped by it—with radical consequences for the meanings of politics, art, education, intelligence, and truth.
