Book Description
"This enormous selection, which must rank as one of the best cartoon compilations of all time, has been specially selected by Helen Walasek of the Punch Cartoon Library and former curator of the Punch Collection. Leafing through its pages you are transported from the parlors and drawing rooms of the 19th century, with insolent servants and arrogant aristocrats, through the smoggy streets and crowded omnibuses of the cities, to the open fields of the country where "townies" shelter from the rain to the scorn of the locals, and would be fishermen and golfers find frustration." "The First World War brings a brash patriotism that leads to a cynical look at the hedonism of the Twenties, pokes fun at the new suburbanites and celebrates the growth of mass entertainment and travel. With the coming of World War Two all the restrictions, foibles and fears of wartime on the Home Front and in the Armed Forces are reflected in Punch's cartoons. But the fun returns with the post-war boom. Consumerism develops, then it's into the Swinging Sixties - popular music, modern art and youth in rebellion. The excesses of the Eighties are chronicled and Nineties are chronicled too. Mr. Punch's cartoonists were there to observe it all, and yon can too, in the pages of this magnificent tome." --Book Jacket.

Book Description
'Enthralling and moving. It is magical.'— Claudia Roden In the 1940s a third of Baghdad's population was Jewish. Within a decade nearly all 150,000 had been expelled, killed or had escaped. This graphic memoir of a lost homeland is a wordless narrative by an author homesick for a home she has never visited. Transported by the power of music to her ancestral home in the old Jewish quarter of Baghdad, the author encounters its ghost-like inhabitants who are revealed as long-gone family members. As she explores the city, journeying through their memories and her imagination, she at first sees successful integration, and cultural and social cohesion. Then the mood turns darker with the fading of this ancient community's fortunes. This beautiful wordless narrative is illuminated by the words and portraits of her family, a brief history of Baghdadi Jews and of the making of this work. Says Isaacs: 'The Finns have a word, kaukokaipuu, which means a feeling of homesickness for a place you've never been to. I've been living in two places all my life; the England I was born in, and the lost world of my Iraqi-Jewish family's roots.'
