Gm.
Some Amazon products ship to the U.S. and not to Egypt. So, my friend bought three philosophy books, shipped them to my place, and I brought them to Egypt in my bag when I came.
One of them, however, was a crazy misprinting. Inside the philosophy cover was a book on witchcraft.
Apart from being funny, it’s actually slightly dangerous. Some countries including the UAE have laws against sorcery. Imagine flying in there, get a random baggage check, and you unknowingly have a witchcraft book with a philosophy cover on it, as though you are sneaking it in. Like, what do you even say in that situation.

People were able to buy it but then Amazon broke the link.
Will let people know when it’s back up.

You know what would be crazy? Just deciding to skip punctuation.
Cormac McCarthy, the bestselling and Pulitzer-winning author of books like No Country For Old Men, The Road, and Blood Meridian, famously didn't like quotation marks, felt they cluttered the page, and so he didn't use them.
When dialogue happens in his novels, there are no quotes around it, and you as the reader just have to figure out when a line is narration or dialogue. He also didn't use semicolons or exclamation points or certain other forms of punctuation. While he didn't exclude commas entirely, he did minimize them, and instead used extra "ands" in place of where many other authors would use commas. He used periods normally.
His prose isn't my cup of tea, but there's no denying his success, and it goes to show that you can kind of just do things.
