Cartooning: Philosophy and Practice

"This thoughtful take on comic art by Brunetti, whose work has appeared in "McSweeney's" and "The New Yorker", is the condensed version of a course the author teaches on the art of cartooning. He presents a series of assignments designed to help readers express themselves eloquently in words and pictures. One especially clever exercise walks readers through the process of distilling a complete story into a one-panel comic strip using J.D. Salinger's classic "The Catcher in the Rye" as an example. Don't be fooled by the whimsical cover; this book is decidedly aimed at adults." Library Journal.
