Book Description
In 1893 almost 500 Australians set out by ship to plant a communist utopia in the heart of Paraguay. Led by socialist journalist and activist, William Lane, their aim was to realise the cherished Australian principles of equality and mateship. It was not to be. Expulsions and secessions began early; in mid-1894 Lane himself seceded with a loyal minority and founded Cosme, some forty-five miles south of the original settlement, but two years later the new colony had deteriorated and dwindled. Acclaimed historian Gavin Souter unravels the history of the New Australia movement, exploring the motivations and motives of its members, its organisation, the conflicts and dissension and the final disillusionment. He suggests a number of factors contributing to the venture’s failure, not the least being William Lane’s contradictory personality. Meticulously researched and based on countless interviews with descendants of the original settlers, A Peculiar People is a work of literary as well as historical value. Winner of the Foundation of Australian Literary Studies award, it brings the fascinating story of idealism, courage and human fallibility to vivid life. Reviews of A Peculiar People ‘The most complete, objective and altogether satisfying account – by turns ironic, sardonic, compassionate, frequently evocative and finally haunting.’ Australian Book Review ‘An excellent book, lively in its narrative and judicious in its interpretations.’ The Age ‘Souter … writes with admirable clarity and can make a story, period and cast of people come alive – exciting, absurd and gallant by turns.’ The Bulletin

They're all into him, singing songs and being all cute. But, oh boy, things take a twist when they decide to turn Mickey's ears into elephant-sized flappers. Dream logic, right? Now, back to reality. Mickey stumbles upon a talent show in CatWood, and let's just say it's a comedy gold mine. There's a magician cat named Tiger, whose tricks are more like "whoopsies" than "wow." First, he tries to make fruits disappear, but they're not going anywhere. Then, he promises a candy rain but ends up with a mouse shower instead! Talk about a cat-astrophe! But wait, the real show-stopper is when Tiger accidentally turns the falling mice into autumn leaves. The cats go nuts trying to catch them, leaving chaos on stage. Poor Zima, the host, takes a tumble, and the judges? Well, they're on a mission to catch mice too. Now, here's the kicker – Mickey, who was 11th in line, suddenly becomes the third participant. How? Nobody knows. But Mickey seizes the moment with a barrage of cat jokes that have the whole audience in stitches. As if things couldn't get crazier, Zima, the host, decides to give Mickey a kiss.

They knock on Mickey's door, delivering not just letters but a whole lot of drama. Mickey, being the lazy cat he is, tries to pass the responsibility to Jessie, his cat wife. But Jessie's having none of it. She's in the bathroom, probably plotting her next move in the ongoing battle for Mickey's attention.

She reads aloud, "Meow, meow, and a thousand meows! How's my favourite whisker-twitching, tail-wagging, utterly charming cat doing today?" Jessie's eyes widen, and she starts connecting the dots about a potential kitten-making plan. As Jessie confronts Mickey, accusing him of planning a feline family with the mysterious Julie, things take a turn for the worse. Mickey, attempting a dramatic escape, heads for the window. But Jessie, armed with slippers and a flower vase, goes full-on warfare mode. Slippers fly, vases crash, and Mickey finds himself on the wrong end of Jessie's feline fury.
