Diary of Edward the Hamster, 1990-1990 / Miriam Elia and Ezra Elia




   If you ever find yourself in the mood for some existential musings from a rodent, look no further than this wee number. It is short, it is hilarious, it has pictures of a smoking hamster. Really, what could be better? A smoking hamster! A hamster that smokes! I'm not sure why I find this so funny.

   Edward's life is predictably short (it's right there in the title: 1990-1990), but it was full. At one point he goes on a hunger strike. He finds (and loses) love. He wonders about the purpose of life. Read it, love it, it will take you half an hour if you go slow.
