Book-It 'o9! Book #7

[alivemagdolene]

More of the Fifty Books Challenge! I have been meaning to post this for the past two days and am kinda glad I waited until today 'cause I managed to wrangle imoldfashioned into the book challenge along with me!

Number seven is a library request: an Art Spiegelman I'd heard about but hadn't yet read.

You have indeed inspired me!

His cover of the New Yorker after 9/11 (a variation is used on the cover of this book) is one of my favorites. I'd really like to read these books after reading your reviews.

The New Yorker cover was what I noticed first. Amazing stuff! I love that he works with his wife. Wonder if their children do anything artistic (or completely shun that)?

And I'm glad! :^D

ADDENDUM: Did you know he co-created Garbage Pail Kids? How many other Pulitzer Prize winners can say that? *snerk*

Yet another on the reading list!

And I've got quite a massive one. Not only must I appease professor, I picked up a hardcover David Sedaris book for cheap.

I love these reviews of yours, love!

Aw, thanks, hon! :^D

And David Sedaris has yet to write a book I don't find "ace" as Andy would say. His "Santa Land Diaries" are possibly my favorite thing ever. It makes working retail almost worth it. ^_^
