… a delight …
Baking with Kafka is a delight – full of whimsical musings on reading, writing and how to get a publishing deal after a skeleton apocalypse.
I can’t really do justice to the range over topics Tom covers with his clean, flat drawings and economical writing style so here’s some titles of his cartoons to give you a flavour :
- War and Peace Clickbait
- Keyboard Shortcuts for Novelists
- JG Ballard’s Books for Children were not a Success
- Dystopian Road signs.
Highly recommended.
Tom Gauld grew up in Scotland and now lives with his family in London. His work is regularly published in the The Guardian, The New York Times and New Scientist. To learn more about him, click here for his website. You can also go to the Guardian website’s profile of him for his latest cartoons for the newspaper.
But really, Tom‘s latest hardback needs to be bought.
Baking with Kafka, Comics by Tom Gauld was published by Canongate Books in September 2017.
