Sequential Drawings: The New Yorker Series by Richard McGuire
4.0
Hooray! I read a 640 page book!*
I really loved Richard McGuire's Here, so I was thrilled that he has a new book. This is definitely more whimsical than that, but packs less of the punch too. A lot of the series' I liked best were the ones that, like Here, took place in one spot. I especially liked Framed, Bird Cages, Touring, Insect Fashion, and Burden. But they were all pretty great. Probably a longer review to come, but I make no promises.
*There's only one image on every odd page, so it's not any kind of accomplishment.
