About this title

From the Publisher:

Perversely fascinating, delightfully odd; a must for fans.
‘Very funny ... displays Crumb’s work chronologically, from innocuous Valentine cards to the ingenious smut that made his name. There’s a lot of intimate material, some of it quite embarrassing to look at ... whoever called Crumb ‘‘the Woody Allen of underground comics’’ got it right. Clinton, Crumb and Allen are men of a certain age, and their work is coloured by knowledge of private peccadilloes. Crumb is the visual documenter of his generation’s sexual dreams and fears ... very funny’ GLASGOW HERALD

‘Whatever you think of the art and life of Robert Crumb, you would have to admit that he’s really, really good at drawing ... despite his ability to nauseate and appal, you can hardly stop yourself from admiring the sheer verve and wicked talent of the man’ LIST

About the Author:

Robert Crumb lives in France, where he spends his time drawing and playing the banjo for his band Les Primitifs du Futur.
