Lathan says the stories were greatly influenced by the humor and characters he knew in Nashville. His friend Thurmond is witty, folksy and not just a little irreverent. He slyly pokes fun at anyone and everyone. Thurmond's worldview is wildly... "Thurmond: Permanently Sealed" is a collection of short stories and cartoons.

Fifty Shades of IKEA
ISBN: 9781935139225 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A lot of people love IKEA. The other day at the laundromat, I counted three out of five customers carrying their laundry in blue IKEA shopping bags. And I was only one of them, which still makes the statistic fifty percent. IKEA is the home furnishing vernacular of our time. It deserves a greater literary tribute than an annual catalogue of its wares. It also deserves better than this silly potpourri, but it's a start.
