Product Description: A book of interviews with the foremost social commentators of our times. The fourth volume in TCJ Library's ongoing series of lavish coffee-table-book collections of interviews drawn from the Utne Award-winning magazine's archives, this volume gathers together the epic, exhaustive interviews with four of the sharpest social commentators of our times: Ralph Steadman, Jules Feiffer, Edward Sorel, and David Levine.
Steadman is the caustic illustrator of classic works like George Orwell's Animal Farm and Hunter S. Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72. Feiffer is the Pulitzer Prize-winning creator of the comics classics Munro, Tantrum and Sick, Sick, Sick and author of the seminal history of comics, The Great Comic Book Heroes, as well as screenplays for Carnal Knowledge, Little Murders and Popeye. Sorel is the co-founder of the world-famous Pushpin Studio and illustrator whose work has appeared regularly in publications like The Village Voice and The Atlantic and books like Moon Missing and Making the World Safe for Hypocrisy. Levine is of course the keen-eyed caricaturist whose work has lent dignity and consistency to the pages of The New York Review of Books every issue for nearly 40 years.
Each definitive conversation will boast the generous amounts of illustration that TCJ Library readers have come to expect from each volume, as well as a full-color gallery of rarely seen work.
Genius's of Line A handsome packaging of material from Jules Feiffer, David Levine, and Ralph Steadman. The volume is a visual and verbal feast, wildly entertaining and informative. Thanks be to Fantagraphics!
