Screams: Shrieks of Horror and Yelps of Pleasure from Modern Life

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Ysenda Maxtone Graham

Illustrated by: Nick Newman

A gently humorous take on the modern world - from the pitfalls of knicker-envy to the weaponising of email sign-offs

Screams is Ysenda Maxtone Graham's idiosyncratic and gently funny take on the modern world. She pinpoints all those small things that irritate, but which have a disproportionate effect on our wellbeing (for example, agonising waits for HMRC while stuck in a loop playing the Four Seasons; deep-seated recycling fears; friends that gaslight you with too many xxxs) and also takes pleasure in the small victories that bring surprising joy (lunch from leftovers and finding a miraculous parking space against all odds).
