Commendations "Fun at the Opera is a beautiful tale about an evening filled with a myriad of colours, swirling gleeful mischief and endless possibilities. It’s a beautiful gift that will be enjoyed by all children, parents and grandparents for years and years to come." - Myra Garces Bascal, Assistant Professor "What a wonderful way to introduce to children the pantomime, the drama, the colour, the spectacle and the delights that is Chinese Opera. With her unique, creative and extremely colourful illustrations Susanna has opened the stage doors of this often intriguing world. The playfulness of the children creating their own opera world behind the scenes is a wonderful expression of all the magic and joy of childhood. I know that Susanna has been passionate for the creation of this project and I am one who is so pleased that she has laboured so long to create this beautiful production – much like Chinese opera itself. Congratulations for a beautiful creation." - Christopher Cheng, award winning children's author, Australia, International Board of Advisors, Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators

There are a lot of books that say how great, wonderful and artistic opera is, but this is a skillfully written and hilarious book about how ridiculous opera is. Essentially the point of the book is that if you can't laugh at opera, you have no sense of humor, and if you can't enjoy opera, you have no sense of wonder. OperAntics gives you plenty of reasons to laugh at opera and prove you have a sense of humor.

Covent Garden 1947. After acknowledging the applause following her spectacular debut performance of Salome, Bulgarian soprano Ljuba Welitsch made her way back to her dressing-room. As she was changing her costume there came a knock on the door: a small group of male admirers had gathered outside to pay their compliments. Taken completely by surprise the startled diva, whose English at the time was, to say the least, somewhat limited, called out: “Don't come in yet poys: I'm still dressed!” It's anecdotes like these that add sparkle and fun to the topsy-turvy world of opera – hence the title. The author has spent about three years collecting more than three hundred anecdotes about operas, singers, composers, conductors and impresarios. Arranged from A to Z for easy reference, the reader will find an amusing account of the man who, after seeing a performance of Aida in Parma, wrote to Verdi demanding his money back; stories about Callas, Caruso and other celebrated singers as well as such composers as Rossini, Puccini and Straus (not a typo: it's spelt with one s); about the World's Greatest Tenor and the various claimants to that illustrious but contentious title; composers who sang; the hidden dangers of opera in translation; prima donnas and their tantrums; and the activities of that unseen body, the claque. If you'd like to test your knowledge of matters operatic check the opera quiz. There's also the story of a little fox terrier, who despite his humble pedigree, can claim to be the world's most famous dog, mainly thanks to opera.

2019 HUGO AWARD FINALIST, BEST NOVEL The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy meets the joy and glamour of Eurovision in bestselling author Catherynne M. Valente's science fiction spectacle, where sentient races compete for glory in a galactic musical contest…and the stakes are as high as the fate of planet Earth. A century ago, the Sentience Wars tore the galaxy apart and nearly ended the entire concept of intelligent space-faring life. In the aftermath, a curious tradition was invented—something to cheer up everyone who was left and bring the shattered worlds together in the spirit of peace, unity, and understanding. Once every cycle, the great galactic civilizations gather for the Metagalactic Grand Prix—part gladiatorial contest, part beauty pageant, part concert extravaganza, and part continuation of the wars of the past. Species far and wide compete in feats of song, dance and/or whatever facsimile of these can be performed by various creatures who may or may not possess, in the traditional sense, feet, mouths, larynxes, or faces. And if a new species should wish to be counted among the high and the mighty, if a new planet has produced some savage group of animals, machines, or algae that claim to be, against all odds, sentient? Well, then they will have to compete. And if they fail? Sudden extermination for their entire species. This year, though, humankind has discovered the enormous universe. And while they expected to discover a grand drama of diplomacy, gunships, wormholes, and stoic councils of aliens, they have instead found glitter, lipstick, and electric guitars. Mankind will not get to fight for its destiny—they must sing. Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes have been chosen to represent their planet on the greatest stage in the galaxy. And the fate of Earth lies in their ability to rock.
