Description

Book Synopsis
Author Michael Chabon described Ben Katchor (b. 1951) as ""the creator of the last great American comic strip."" Katchor's work is often described as zany or bizarre, and author Douglas Wolk has characterized his work as ""one or two notches too far"" beyond an absurdist reality. And yet the work resonates with its audience because absurdity was the reality.
