Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""Not That It Matters"" is a collection of humorous essays written by A. A. Milne, the creator of Winnie-the-Pooh. Originally published in 1920, the book contains a series of short pieces that cover a range of topics, from the absurdity of modern life to the quirks of human behavior. Milne's writing is witty, charming, and often satirical, poking fun at everything from the British class system to the futility of war. Despite its age, the book remains a delightful read for anyone who enjoys clever humor and a bit of gentle mockery.The simple truth, and everybody knows it really, is that collars squeak for some people and not for others. A squeaky collar round the neck of a man is a comment, not upon the collar, but upon the man. That man is unlucky. Things are against him. Nature may have done all for him that she could, have given him a handsome outside and a noble inside, but the world of inanimate objects is against him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
