The songs had been part of her childhood. She knew all the words of ‘The World Turned Upside Down’ and ‘The Devil Shall Be My Sergeant’ and ‘Johnny Has Gone For A Soldier’ and ‘The Girl I Left Behind Me’ and, after the drink had been flowing for a while, she’d memorized ‘Colonel Crapski’ and ‘I Wish I’d Never Kissed Her’.
-Monstrous Regiment, Terry Pratchett
(Description: A black and white 17th century woodblock print of a mustachioed man. His gloves are on his feet, his doublet is on his legs, his trousers are on his arms and his boots, with spurs, are on his hands. Small strange animals hop around his feet and there are fish and comets in the sky. An upside down castle hangs over his head. In the background, a horse stands on its hind legs behind a cart holding a whip. A man walks on his hands pushing a wheelbarrow balanced on its wheel. The text uses the long S which looks like an F. It reads: The World turn’d upfide down: or, A briefe defcription of the ridiculous Fafhions of thefe diftracted Times. By T.J. a well-willer to King, Parliament and Kingdom. London: Printed for John Smith. Jan. 28 1646.)

Miss A. Z. Fell, bookshop owner, and her peculiar friend A. J. Crowley. Remember when I mentioned wanting to do queer culture things with Aziraphale and Crowley? Well lets start off with the concept of Boston Marriage, describing two women living together without a man’s support in the late 19th cenutry/early 20th century. It wasn’t necessarily romantic, but it was at times. They also are wearing green carnations, which became symbolic of queer love in the days of Oscar Wilde

i like pratchett’s books because (unlike most other fantasy books i’ve read) it focuses and develops the working-class world, the underbelly, urban and poor rural areas and makes those characters the central focus of the stories. it’s something fantasy and to a lesser extent sci-fi and spec fic are seriously lacking in. it’s proof that the nobles and the power don’t make fantasy fantasy. the mundane can still be fantastic.
