A master of condensing grand, highbrow themes into panel comics, his weekly strips embody his trademark sense of humour while simultaneously opening comics to an audience unfamiliar with the artistry that cartooning has to offer. Funny but serious, these comics allow Gauld to put his impressive knowledge of history, literature and pop culture on full display — his impeccable timing and distinctive visual style setting him apart from the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis postcard set celebrates more than a decade of Gauld's contributions to the \u003ci\u003eGuardian\u003c\/i\u003e, with fifty of his most beloved strips, on everything from Samuel Beckett's sitcom pitches (such as \u003ci\u003eWaiting for Kramer\u003c\/i\u003e, a show where two men await the arrival of a man named Kramer who never comes), 'Procrastination for Creative Writers, a 10-Week Course' and 'Poetry Anthologies for People Who Don't Like Poems'. Witty and beautifully drawn, \u003ci\u003eThe Snooty Bookshop\u003c\/i\u003e will make you laugh at least fifty times, guaranteed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47461645025516,"sku":"9781786891525","price":39.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781786891525-the-snooty-bookshop.jpg?v=1774974086","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-snooty-bookshop-by-tom-gauld-9781786891525","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
