Confront the spectre of failure, the wraith of social media, and other supernatural enemies.
Tom Gauld returns with his wittiest and most trenchant collection of literary cartoons to date. Perfectly composed drawings are punctuated with the artist's signature brand of humor, hitting high and low. After all, Gauld is just as comfortable taking jabs at JaneEyre and Game of Thrones.
Some particularly favoured targets include the pretentious procrastinating novelist, the commercial mercenary of the dispassionate editor, the willful obscurantism of the vainglorious poet.
Quake in the presence of the stack of bedside books as it grows taller. Gnash your teeth at the ever-moving deadline that the writer never meets. Quail before the critic’s incisive dissection of the manuscript. And most importantly, seethe with envy at the paragon of creative productivity.
Revenge of the Librarians contains even more murders, drubbings, and castigations than any other collections of mordant scribblings by the inimitably excellent Gauld.
