How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Illustrated About The Toys of Peace and Other Papers by Saki This is the last collection of stories written by the witty British author, Hector Hugh Munro, better known by his pen name 'Saki'. The title story is a humorous tale of trying to indoctrinate young boys with a culture of peace rather than war, by a mother and her brother, Harvey, who give her boys "peace toys" for Easter instead of toy guns, tin soldiers, and the like. The boys were not impressed by such gifts as tin statues of economists, scientists, sanitary inspectors, and politicians, rather than soldiers and heroes; models of municipal buildings rather than forts; toy hoes instead of toy guns. Left to play with the new politically correct toys, the boys manage to completely thwart the plan, to the frustration of the well-meaning adults.

Considered a masterpiece of American modernist literature, Jean Toomer's Cane calls down through time from the Harlem Renaissance. First published in 1923, Cane was unlike anything published before and in 2023 it remains a necessary alternative to the conventions of literature and publishing. With this 100th anniversary celebration of Cane, we reimagine the critical edition as an invitation to wonder, speculate, imagine and create. We present our beautifully designed, faithful edition of the genre-defying classic along with a deck of striking, large-format oracular cards. Black thinkers and makers from across and between creative, scholarly and community practices have convened for this project. They offer their insights in the form of prompts, gestures, images, questions, calls to respond?each presented on a card, paired with an evocative, timeless quote from Cane.
