{"product_id":"curses-kevin-huizenga-9781770466951","title":"Curses","description":"The River at Night cartoonist revisits his early-aughts breakthrough\nIn the two decades since Curses first hit the shelves, River at Night cartoonist Kevin Huizenga has taken his rightful place on a short A-list of comics experimentalists. Deep research and loopy cartooning serve up philosophical musings while maintaining a classic comic-strip devotion to “the gag.” Huizenga remains one of the funniest and smartest cartoonists working today, and now, the very book that heralded his arrival as a talent to watch is available once more in deluxe paperback as the early work of a now true genius.\nThe short stories collected herewith confront the textures of mortality in unique and peculiar ways. Central character Glenn Ganges is a seemingly middle-class, suburbanite whose blank-eyed wonderment at the everyday brings together diverse aspects of our world—like golf, theology, late-night diners, parenthood, politics, Sudanese refugees, and hallucinatory vision—into a complete experience as multifaceted as each of our own lives.","brand":"Drawn and Quarterly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50137746899232,"sku":"9781770466951","price":18.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781770466951.jpg?v=1768355100","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/curses-kevin-huizenga-9781770466951","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
