This memoir from David Sipress, New Yorker (and Boston Phoenix) cartoonist supreme, is reminiscent an earlier one by another New Yorker cartoonist supreme, Roz Chast, who wrote the graphic memoir Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? Both are children of immigrant Jewish parents, and the dynamics of their childhoods are driven by the relentless pressure to color inside the lines (tough for cartoonists!) and to take no risks. Nat Sipress is a self-made successful jeweler to the wealthy and cannot bear to see his son David being immersed in and loving drawing and dreaming up punch lines, as he sees no route to middle class stability in it. Hilariously brilliant cartoons illuminate the narrative, adding to the immense enjoyment and to the reader's empathy with a gentle humorist who escaped a rat's nest of conflict. Quote: “There are two things you can’t control – cats, and what’s going to happen.” Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"From a longtime New Yorker staff cartoonist, an evocative family memoir, a love letter to New York City, and a delightful exploration of the origins of creativity -- richly interleaved with the author's witty, beloved cartoons." -- No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
