![]() ![]() ![]() In this lighthearted collection of one- and two-page comics, writer-artist Grant Snider explores bookishness in all its forms, and the love of writing and reading, building on the beloved literary comics featured on his website, Incidental Comics. ![]() We collect them, decorate with them, pile them up, hoard them, are inspired by them, and treat them almost like sacred objects. But, also, some of us surround ourselves with books, unwilling to let them go. We learn to read at an early age, and as years pass some of us shed our old books for new ones. It’s no secret that we are judged by our bookshelves. Celebrate the culture and fanaticism of book lovers with beloved illustrator Grant Snider, whose work has appeared in the New Yorker, New York Times Book Review, and more. ![]()
