Pop artist David Shrigleys work is immediate; sometimes rude; and very funny; "like a psychotic version of Matt Groenings Life in Hell cartoons" (The Guardian). His darkly brilliant; addictively hilarious scrawls from the subconscious have already made him a star in the UK; with a growing legion of fans around the globe. The Book of Shrigley is the most extensive and the first widely available showcase of his edgy but accessible off-kilter vision. Here are bad-tempered pets; strange attractions; work; S-E-X; knitting; wrestling; and a host of other everyday activities; dangers; and amusements laid bare in Shrigleys urgently illustrated panels and wickedly mischievous punch lines. Made up of almost entirely new work and bursting with color and unsettlingly funny truths; The Book of Shrigley is the ideal introduction to this comic genius and the book fans have been waiting for.
