Men--the beard is officially over! So get creative with your razor, scissors, and a tiny comb to fashion yourself a fetching mo'! The moustache is back! Walk through any hipster neighborhood these days and you'll see the move away from full-flowing beards and back to the far superior, gentlemanly moustache (don't even think about a whisker-free face!). Today, the modern man uses the mo' much like a pair of raffish eyewear--to accent his face and personality. This book is your easy step-by-step guide to crafting forty classic and contemporary moustache styles. Think beyond the '70s porn-star mo' or Tom Selleck's lip slug in Magnum P.I. (although that one is included!) to cooler versions, including the Horseshoe, the Dalí, the freestyle, the Fu Manchu and the B-Boy. Add some serious style to your face this fall.

An uncanny and eye-opening journey into a mysterious building, adapted from a short story by Jeff VanderMeer To the west: trees. To the east: a mall. North: fast food. South: darkness. And at the centre is The Building, an office building wherein several factions vie for dominance. Inside, the walls are infiltrated with vines, a mischief of mice learn to speak English, and something eerie happens once a month on the fifth floor. In Secret Life, Theo Ellsworth uses a deep-layered style to interpret Nebula award-winning author Jeff VanderMeer’s short story. What emerges is a mind-bending narrative that defamiliarizes the mundanity of office work and makes the arcane rituals of The Building home. When his manager borrows his pen for a presentation, a man is driven to unspeakable acts as he questions the role the pen has played in his workplace success. The despised denizens of the second floor develop their own tongue, incomprehensible to everyone else in The Building. A woman plants a seed of insurgency that quickly permeates every corner of the building with its sweet, nostalgic perfume. With deft insight, Secret Life observes the sinister individualism of bureaucratic settings in contrast with an unconcerned natural world. As the narrative progresses you may begin to suspect that the world Ellsworth has brought to life with hypnotic visuals is not so secret after all; in fact, it’s uncannily similar to our own.
