It's A Good Life If You Don't Weaken
This Ignatz Award-winning book tells the story of Seth’s search for meaning in the life and work of Kalo, a forgotten New Yorker cartoonist from the 1940s.
One of Drawn & Quarterly's most popular and well-received books in recent years, It's A Good Life, If You Don't Weaken is now available in a new beautifully-produced, deluxe clothbound edition! This Ignatz Award-winning book tells the story of Seth's search for meaning in the life and work of Kalo, a forgotten New Yorker cartoonist from the 1940s. Seth's clever use of both fictional and autobiographical elements prompted Details magazine to write an extensive article last year on this noted book. Seth's evocative drawings are presented here in this lavish edition, printed in two colors on ivory-tinted paper. This new edition is presented with a new four-color die-cut image embossed onto its cloth cover and includes an eleven page section of "found" Kalo cartoons, with an extensive glossary of cartoon figures past and present.
