Summary
Richard McGuire has illustrated for The New Yorker magazine for over a decade. He uses the magazine’s single-panel “spots” as a unique canvas upon which to practice the art of the graphic miniseries. Each drawing stands alone but also fits within a wider series of variations on a theme or an unfolding story. These series are collected here for the first time in a charming, joyful, and witty collection of short stories.
