A review by eldritchreader
The Shape of Ideas: An Illustrated Exploration of Creativity by Grant Snider
2.0
I received this book as an Advanced Reading Copy from the publisher in return for an honest review. This has not impacted on my opinion.
This could be a nice gift for any creative types, people in need of inspiration and/or fuel to keep their creativity going.
Some concepts I personally thought he depicted brilliantly. For example nocturnal ideas and inspiration and "How to Climb a Hill". Some comics I thought were a missed opportunity, like "Message to a Graduate". And many I thought were just cute, quirky, won a giggle from me just because of their simple punnyness (see "The Art of Living"). Unfortunately, even more of the comics I felt just didn't have much point, or I just confused me.
Again, a nice gift for those in the creative field, they likely would get more from it then I did.
