Are there any good books about shrugging?

Just finished a short story called "When At Last the Lass Shrugs" by Stan Lynder and it's a theme that I think could be explored more.

The Shrug in the Willows is pretty good. For kids, though.

second time ive had an on-topic thread deleted :/

first was a DFW thread and banned probably because we talked about his suicide. i dont get why that should be deleted. or why my writefag thread should be deleted either.

the thing is i dont think any of the mods are knowledgeable about general /lit/ topics outside of maybe scifi/fantasy. i mean srsly what the hell is wrong with a DFW thread. people werent even bitching at me during it. i think maybe 'suicide' is possibly too much of a touchy subject for our post-2010 guests, that might be a mod memo or something, i cant explain it otherwise.
