Samuel Butler was one of the most interesting and unique novelists of the Victorian era. Though perhaps not one of the best known names of his times, he is very much revered by many who have read his works; his admirers include E.M. Forster and George Bernard Shaw, both of whom drew great inspiration from his work. Butler was known for, among other things, his satirical view of religion. He was openly critical of organised religion, arguing in particular that belief in the god of Christianity had simply evolved from a great many previous gods. As well as his criticisms, however, Butler also had many positive things to say and was well known for his philosophical outlook on life. This book brings together some of Butler's most interesting thoughts on a variety of subjects.

Late one night a boat sends out a distress signal and Mr Grumblebum sets off in the lighthouse boat to save the stranded fishermen.

The Adventures of Inky - David Graham Karl, a young boy who has always wanted a dog, adopts Inky, from Battersea Dogs Home for his birthday present. As the story unfolds, Karl soon realises that Inky has a more mysterious past than might be imagined! Who is the Professor who reared him and what is his connection with MI6? Can Karl help Inky lead a normal life and escape those at MI6 who want him back?
How can I-or anyone-not adore David Graham's new collection? The tone throughout is hospitable, wry, and affirming even while acknowledging that loss and suffering are ever present. The honey of earth "comes and goes at once," Wallace Stevens wrote, and these poems embody that paradox in vivid detail and compelling language. The sweetness that life offers-love, art, music, family, nature-exists simultaneously with the bitterness it guarantees-pain, grief, death. Both coming and going, The Honey of Earth deftly weaves "darkness and light together" with great wisdom, humor, and compassion. -Eric Nelson
