About this title

Synopsis

Davis gets to grip with national stereotypes on both sides of the Atlantic. Travelling around, armed with pencil, notebook and razor-sharp powers of observation for visual detail and the spoken word, he has produced a collection of sketches which capture the nuances of appearance, tone of voice and attitude of his subjects.

Review

...It is a credit to Davis's ability to draw out the personality of his subjects with such absurd - and often scathing - humour that we gain deeper insight into the inanity of the human condition.. -- Design Week
