Adorable little kittens, angels and babies. Flowers, ice cream cones and German boy bands. Indeed, there is a "sweeter side" to R. Crumb. These delectable illustrations-whether depicting Bernie the Cat pawing for his master's affection, the timeworn beauty of a French village cul-de-sac or a quiet night chez Crumb-wonderfully exemplify the many tender moments that have, until now, played second fiddle to Crumb's more raunchy sketches. Now he harkens back to his humble American beginnings as a Cleveland greeting card illustrator, when his innate knack for the grotesque had to be suppressed for the perennial appeal of "cute". The result is this cheery and blue-skied world, where readers of every conceivable personality type, age group, even sexual persuasion can enjoy the artist's momentary lapse from naughty to nice.

Review:
"I never get bored seeing more work from a master who is so obsessively in love with the act of drawing; every image, even and otherwise prosaic still life from a 'pizzeria in St. Hyppolyte du Fort, ' captures the eye and imagination." -- Steven Heller "The New York Times Book Review"
About the Author:
R. Crumb is the author of the The New York Times bestseller The Book of Genesis Illustrated by R. Crumb. He lives the sweet life in the south of France with his wife, Aline and two "wittle putty-cats".

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Cute little kittens, angels, and babies? Flowers, ice cream cones, and German boy bands? Coming from, supposedly, the creepiest and most pessimistic artist of his generation? Yes indeed, there is a "sweeter side" to R. Crumb. These delectable illustrationswhether depicting Bernie the Cat pawing for his master's affection, the timeworn beauty of a French village cul-de-sac, or a quiet night chez Crumbwonderfully exemplify the many tender moments that have, until now, played second fiddle to the cult icon's more raunchy sketches. Now Crumb harkens back to his humble American beginnings as a Cleveland greeting card illustrator, when his innate knack for the grotesque had to be suppressed for the perennial appeal of "cute." The result is this cheery and blue-skied world, where readers of every conceivable personality type, age group, even sexual persuasion can finally enjoy the artist's momentary lapse from naughty to nice. The "nasty, negative, misanthropic" comic genius proves he has a sweet side. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
